Shutterstock Launches an Advanced SSO integration to Improve Security

Shutterstock, Inc., a leading global technology organization providing a creative platform for exceptional content, services, and tools, announced major technical support for enterprise customers by using simple sign-on integration. This offering is reported to be the first of its kind in the content providers worldwide and can be set up in a few minutes.

Reports say that the offering provides much-secured access to a database of over 350 million high-quality licensed images, music tracks, and videos through the Shutterstock platform. The motive behind the integration was to eliminate password exhaustion while accelerating workflows by safely and promptly validating users across numerous identity management solutions and digital platforms.

With the deployment of SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On (SSO), the customer of Shutterstock can expand their access company-wide along with getting extra controls over security as creative and marketing teams prefer remote work and turn towards online partnerships and tools to enhance processes. With lightboxes of curated content and browse-only permissions, Shutterstock provides increased visibility into its content throughout the company but also mitigates the risk of accidental buying. This will expand the content to the sales team for human resources for intranet projects, the business expansion for customer-facing documentation, presentations, and much more.

Shutterstock VP and General Manager of Platform Solutions, Alex Reynolds stated about the challenges the teams face while working from home, and hence being equipped with centralized and secure access to platforms and tools becomes important for productivity. He affirmed that the worldwide rollout of SSO comes from the company's rising dedication to serve the ever-changing rigorous needs of enterprise customers across the globe.

Presently, Shutterstock's SSO is used by more than 250,000 companies around the world as Shutterstock cohorts with the leading identity solutions providers including Microsoft's Azure AD, Auth0, Okta, Ping Identity, and OneLogin, with many more in the progress. After implementation in these platforms, the turnkey solution will centralize buying activity and decrease employee spend by around 10% owing to the accidental re-licensing of content, as per the recent analysis.
