> Hijack one session and re-use it for other purposes

If the attacker has the ability to hijack one session they could hijack all the other n sessions from the same place anyways. So while SSO does centralize your identity, it also makes it safer because you can uniformly handle provisioning/deprovisioning, password resets, 2FA and all other policies in one place for your entire organization instead of a hundred separate ones.
