The most important industry standard for Identity Management is the SecurityAssertion Markup Language (SAML). SAML is based on the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) and enables the secure exchange of XML-based authentication messages. In conjunction with Single Sign-On (SSO) systems, SAML especially offers a standardized format for authentication tokens. Authentication and authorization data are defined in SAML Assertions.
SAML Usage
- Single Sign-On (SSO)
- Single Logout
- Identity Federation
Login with SAML
- Service-Provider (SP)-initiated SSO
- Identity Provider (IdP)-initiated SSO
