You can use integrated security in workgroups as well, but it is more
flaky. You username and password must be the same, but there may be more
to it.

During the beta programme of SQL 2005, I ran SQL 2005 on virtual machines,
and I did not have any domain. I was able to connect from my host computer
to the virtual machines with integrated security, but the other direction
did not work.
