sign-ons

Beginning user sessions

Sign-ons are instances of logging into a computer system, account, or service.

The term covers both the act and the credentials used: The system tracks all sign-ons for security purposes.

In broadcasting, a sign-on is when a station begins its daily transmission.

Single sign-on (SSO) lets users access multiple systems with one authentication.
