# Select authentication type

You can allow users to log on using their internal OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering password, LDAP password, or SSO authentication.

In this topic:

## Overview

The authentication method is defined in Administration per tenant, on the basis of one type of authentication per farm.

Authentication | Description
--- | ---
Application | OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering's built-in, native, internal user management. Enables the user to define a user name and password internally. Every authentication is performed with the Users table. For details, see Application authentication.
LDAP | Enables you to use your organization's LDAP system for authenticating users. For details, see LDAP authentication.
SSO | Enables you to set up single sign-on (SSO) authentication for connecting to OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering. Each can define one SSO configuration. For details, see SSO authentication.

Note:

- We recommend using SSO or LDAP because they are a more secure type of authentication.

- All users using the system must be in the database before they can be authenticated using one of the authentication types. For details, see Create or edit a user.
