Please mention the use case in which we use SSO Registration.

SSO (Single Sign-On) Registration refers to the process of registering a user with an application using a centralized authentication system. It enables users to access multiple applications or services using a single set of credentials.
Key Uses of SSO Registration:
1. Unified User Experience
- Users register once and can log into multiple systems without signing in repeatedly.
- Reduces password fatigue and simplifies access across platforms.
2. Centralized User Identity Management
- All user data (like name, email, role, etc.) is managed in one place.
- When a user registers via SSO, their identity is fetched and created in your system automatically.
3. Enhanced Security
- Leverages secure, enterprise-grade authentication protocols (like OAuth2, SAML, OpenID Connect).
- Minimizes phishing risks since users only authenticate through the trusted identity provider.
4. Faster Onboarding
- New users can register and log in instantly using their existing credentials (e.g., company email).
- No need to remember or create new usernames and passwords.
5. Reduced IT and Support Costs
- Fewer password reset requests and user management issues.
- IT can focus on core issues instead of dealing with login problems.
Example Use Case:
A company uses Google Workspace. With SSO registration:
- An employee clicks “Login with Google” on an internal tool.
- The app checks with Google and registers the user if it’s their first time.
- The employee is then redirected and automatically logged into the app — without creating a new password or account.
