Use social sign-in to increase user acquisition

"SSO" stands for "Single Sign-On," which is a mechanism that allows users to authenticate themselves once with one set of login credentials (such as a username and password), and then be granted access to multiple applications or services without having to re-enter their credentials each time."Social SSO" refers specifically to using social media accounts (such as Facebook, Google, or Twitter) to authenticate users and grant them access to various applications and services. In other words, instead of creating a new username and password for each service, users can simply use their existing social media accounts to log in. This can simplify the authentication process for users and reduce the burden of managing multiple sets of credentials.

OAuth is an open standard protocol for secure authorization and access delegation. It allows users to grant limited access to their resources without sharing login credentials. OAuth sign-in and social sign-in are related but not the same. OAuth sign-in uses OAuth to authenticate and authorize a user, while social sign-in specifically refers to using social media accounts for authentication.
