What Is a Single Sign-On (SSO) Code?

Key Points:

• The term "SSO Code" is misleading and can refer to a Company Domain, a Verification Code, or an OAuth Authorization Token depending on the context of the login process.
• Users may face issues when logging into applications like Zoom or Slack if they do not understand what is being requested, leading to potential security risks if verification codes are shared improperly.
• Organizations should educate employees on the distinctions between these terms and promote passwordless authentication methods to enhance security and user experience.
