DMARC management platform with Single Sign-On (SSO)
Sendmarc’s DMARC management platform supports Single Sign-On (SSO), enabling centralized access management of the Sendmarc Portal and enabling your organization to comply with access control policies.
Sendmarc’s Single Sign-On (SSO) integrations
Sendmarc’s DMARC management platform integrates with the following Identity Providers (IdPs):
Your administrator controls Sendmarc’s Single Sign-On (SSO) settings inside our DMARC management platform. Your organization has the option to disable, enable, or force SSO logins and choose a preferred provider.
What is Single Sign-On?
Single Sign-On (SSO) is a centralized authentication process that allows users to access multiple applications, like Sendmarc’s DMARC management platform, with a single set of credentials approved by your company.
Instead of managing multiple usernames and passwords, users log in once through a trusted IdP, such as Okta, Google Workspace, or Microsoft Entra/365.
How does Sendmarc’s SSO work?
When SSO is enabled, users can access the Sendmarc Portal through their chosen IdP or their Sendmarc Portal login credentials. If the SSO setting is set to forced, users can only log in with their organization’s chosen IdP, and if disabled, access will only be granted via the Sendmarc Portal login form.
What is the SSO process?
1. User verification
- Users select their preferred IdP on the Sendmarc Platform login form.
- They are then redirected to the IdP for authentication and provide their credentials.
- The IdP validates the credentials and confirms the user’s identity.
2. Token-based authentication
- After successful authentication, the IdP generates a security token containing the user’s information and permissions.
- The token is sent back to the Sendmarc Portal, and the user is automatically logged into the platform.
- This token ensures secure and authorized access to Sendmarc’s DMARC management platform
Benefits of SSO

- Enhanced security: Stronger authentication aligned with organizational standards.
- Simplified user management: Streamline user setup and deactivation.
- Improved experience: Decrease password fatigue with hassle-free access.
- Increased productivity: Eliminate password management tasks.
- Lower costs: Reduce IT overheads and support calls.
