Remote Team? SignOn Once Is More Important Than Ever
COVID-19 has greatly impacted the insurance industry, and security should be at the forefront of everyone's minds.
If your team is working remotely, ask yourself if your agency and customer data are secure. Security has never been more important and SignOn Once means each agency user has a single sign-on to access all participating carriers. Transactions are more efficient and more secure for both the agency and carrier.
We urge you to continue to spread the word about
SignOn Once
to carriers so that more begin to offer this secure solution while cyber criminals shift their focus to remote workers.
We're also sharing the latest news and tips on ID Federation's social media accounts as we make our way (slowly, but surely) back to normal.
In this edition, we share how one agent maximized efficiency through a carrier's embrace of SignOn Once. We also introduce you to our 2020 board members.

Mike Foy Wants to Eliminate the Speed Bumps
He outlines four tangible reasons why agencies and carriers need an updated password security process -- not to mention, the cost savings involved.
"
Agencies, carriers and management system providers can and must move to a more efficient, more secure, less expensive identity management approach," says Mike. "ID Federation does not offer software; rather, it delivers standards that solutions providers and carriers implement."
