Single Sign On
What is Single Sign On?
Gold-Vision 8 makes use of a more secure Single Sign-On (SSO) system, giving you flexible, modern ways to sign in — including passkeys, which let you sign in with your device (Windows Hello, Touch ID, or a security key) instead of typing a password.
Gold-Vision SSO includes Two-Factor Authentication and passkey sign-in, providing the following benefits:
- Improves the user experience — sign in faster, with fewer passwords to remember
- Provides enhanced security — passkeys and two-factor authentication are significantly harder to compromise than a password alone
- Improves password management — reduces reliance on passwords day-to-day, without removing them as an option
- Assists with regulatory compliance — supports stronger authentication requirements
How to register for Single Sign On
To prepare for this, users need do the following
- Go to https://uk.gold-vision.me/
- Click the Register button
- Register using your main email address (the one you have recorded against your Gold-Vision user) and choose a password that satisfies our password security rules.
- Check your email and click on the link to verify your email.
- Once registered, you can also set up two factor authentication or a passkey, which can be done from the options after log in.
Once complete you will be activated and can use these credentials to log in to Gold-Vision.
Info
Your password needs to include
- At least 12 characters
- 1 upper case letter
- 1 lower case letter
- 1 number
- 1 special character
Signing in with a Passkey
Alongside your email and password, you can now sign in using a passkey — a faster, more secure way to log in using your device’s own security features, such as Windows Hello, Touch ID, or a physical security key. Passkeys work alongside your existing password and two-factor authentication.
Once you are logged into SSO you can add and remove passkeys within your account at https://uk.gold-vision.me.
When you next login you will then see the Sign in with Passkey option, allowing you to use your Windows Hello, Touch ID, or a physical security key.
