Identity Provider (IdP) :: Federated Identity Suite

A Central Element For Federated Identity Solutions

Symlabs Identity Provider (IdP) is the component of Symlabs Federated Identity Suite that delivers a full-featured, ready-to-deploy, multi-protocol, standards-based Identity Provider. It offers essential capabilities for Service Providers (SPs) such as user authentication information for Single Sign-On (SSO), or the federation and session information and management that provides defederation and Single Log-Off (SLO) capabilities. It can also be used as a portal, allowing users to log on to any service.
 
Symlabs Identity Provider (IdP) supports all aspects of the federation framework. It can act as an attribute authority to send attribute-based identity information or as an authentication authority offering a query interface for issued statements, and it can also be configured to relay its authentications in IdP Proxy mode.
 

Symlabs Identity Provider (IdP) is a fully functional Web Services Framework Authentication Service supporting various methods for Liberty User Agents and Device (LUAD) authentication, and includes the Symlabs Discovery Service (DS) that can be deployed standalone or integrated with the IdP.

Support For A Wide Range Of Industry Standards

The specifications supported for Single Sign-On plus Session and Federation Management include Liberty ID-FF 1.2, OASIS SAML 2.0 full extended profile, and WS-Federation 1.0 (SSO, SLO).
 

Symlabs Identity Provider (IdP) also supports Liberty ID-WSF 1.1 and Liberty ID-WSF 2.0 specifications for the secure exchange of identity information, including Discovery Service, Discovery Bootstrap, Authentication Service, and Identity Mapping Service.
