SAP Logon Tickets SSO Single SignOn

SAP Logon Tickets are used in SAP Enterprise Portal to authenticate users to applications. In simple terms, the SAP Logon tickets represent users credentials. The process of logging on into SAP, the SAP portal server issues a SAP Logon ticket to the user. The logon ticket is stored as a cookie on a session by session basis in the browser. So how do SAP Logon tickets help in the overall authentication process in SAP. Use of SAP Logon tickets enables users to have access to multiple applications and services. Once the logon is complete, no other additional logons are required from the user.

SAP Logon tickets provide a very strong level of security for SAP systems since the logon tickets are digitally signed by the portal server and have digital signatures for authenticity and integrity. It should be noted that SAP logon tickets do not contain any passwords. Normally, the SAP Logon ticket contains:

- User ID
- Period of Validity of the Ticket
- Issuing system
- Digital Signature
- Scheme of Authentication
