SSO is not a requirement for secure software. It’s a requirement for enterprises because otherwise they have to manually keep track of everyone’s accounts everywhere, but that’s a management issue not a security issue (unless managed poorly).
Admittedly for many SaaS and OSS offerings SSO is an enterprise-only feature while it doesn’t have to be, but it’s the best discriminator they have to separate cheaper plans from enterprise plans. The alternative is to charge more for all plans, but then you lose out to the competition that does play this enterprise tax game.
