The LGfL USO
Ian Lehmann
Operations Manager
What is USO?
Unified Sign On (USO)
A term used by LGfL to describe an authentication system where the same username and password is used to gain
access to a wide variety of systems.
In this scenario it is necessary to enter the username and password once for each service that is accessed.
However, a user can alter his/her password in one place and have that change propagate to all systems
What is the LGfL USO?
• A database of users within London and the UK
• A database of users which can be maintained by nominated contacts in schools and Local Authorities
• A system for authenticating against LGfL protected resources both Web (Shibboleth) and non-web based.
