From providing vital citizen services, to enabling communication across departments, identity and access management can help governments meet their digital goals.
Central Government

As governments move these services online, Auth0 helps provide the authentication solutions they need to communicate across departments and with their citizens in a safe and simple way:
- Ensuring only the right people have access to sensitive information.
- Enabling a frictionless user experience with Single Sign-On.
- Securing government applications and safeguarding citizens against fraud with service level security, password policies, attack protection, and MFA.

Auth0 provides a secure and fully customizable authentication and login experience—using SSO and MFA—so that citizens can quickly access the resources and services they need.
