Single Sign On (SSO)

Single Sign On (SSO)

Single Sign On (SSO) simplifies user access to multiple applications. Here's how it works:

  • Users enter their account credentials once to access a single SSO-enabled application, such as Canvas.
  • Users can then access other SSO-enabled applications without re-entering credentials.

Features

  • Synchronizes passwords and user information, making access to different platforms and resources easier.
  • Improves network and application security by eliminating password fatigue.
  • Enhances user experience by avoiding interruptions caused by frequent password requests when accessing essential IT tools.

Designed For

  • Students
  • Faculty
  • Staff

Requirements

  • An active Del Mar College account

Data Security

  • It is the account holder's responsibility to protect their account credentials, including usernames, passwords, and any other authentication information.

Get Started

Log in once to any SSO-enabled application such as Canvas using your Del Mar College email address and password. If using the same browser, you should not be required to log in again to any other SSO-enabled application.

Get Help

If you cannot access your account, call the Viking Help Desk at (361) 698-2330. Password resets will not be completed by email.

Users who have enrolled in self-service password reset can reset their password or unlock their account anytime here.
