Case Study: ELEXON eliminates password-related cyber risk and gains true Single Sign-On with My1Login

ELEXON Chooses My1Login’s IDaaS to Take the Heat Out of Cyber Risk

ELEXON, the organisation that reconciles the UK wholesale electricity market (processing 1.2 million meter readings a day and handling over £1.5 billion annually), faced growing cyber risk from weak and reused passwords, phishing and an incumbent IAM that wouldn’t integrate with all applications—particularly critical Windows desktop apps—creating password fatigue and gaps in governance. To tackle this, ELEXON selected My1Login’s Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) Single Sign-On for web and Windows desktop applications (with privileged password management) to replace the incompatible solution.

My1Login implemented a client-side encrypted IDaaS that delivered true Single Sign-On across 100% of ELEXON’s applications, with the first user live in under an hour. The deployment removed password disclosure, automated password updates, and eliminated many password-related cyber risks, returning control of identities and access to the business, improving audit and provisioning workflows, and reducing user password fatigue while increasing productivity.
