Episode 116: User Account Controls and SSO

In this episode, we cover two important mechanisms for managing user access and security: User Account Control (UAC) and Single Sign-On (SSO). We begin with UAC—how it prompts users before executing administrative tasks, how to configure its sensitivity level, and what role it plays in limiting malware execution. Understanding UAC’s purpose and behavior is key to answering questions about privilege management.Next, we discuss Single Sign-On—how it allows users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple systems without entering credentials repeatedly. We explain how SSO improves both security and user experience, and where it’s typically deployed, such as in domain environments or cloud services. These features are foundational to modern access control systems and frequently appear in Core 2 exam content. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
