SAML actors are Identity Providers (IdP), Service Providers (SP), Discovery Services, ECP Clients, Metadata Services, or Broker/IdP-proxy. This table shows the capability of products according to Kantara Initiative testing. [1] [2] Claimed capabilities are in column "other". Each mark denotes that at least one interoperability test was passed.
An identity provider (abbreviated IdP or IDP) is a system entity that creates, maintains, and manages identity information for principals and also provides authentication services to relying applications within a federation or distributed network. [1] Identity providers offer user authentication as a service.
The SAML specification defines three roles: the principal (typically a human user), the identity provider (IdP) and the service provider (SP). In the primary use case addressed by SAML, the principal requests a service from the service provider. The service provider requests and obtains an authentication assertion from the identity provider.
A given SAML identity provider is described by an <md:IDPSSODescriptor> element defined by the SAML metadata schema. [OS 3] Likewise, a SAML service provider is described by an <md:SPSSODescriptor> metadata element. In addition to an authentication assertion, a SAML identity provider may also include an attribute assertion in the response.
The service provider consults its list of trusted identity providers in metadata before issuing a SAML Request at the next step. If the service provider can not determine if the identity provider in question is trusted, the browser user must not be redirected to the IdP. This is why it is imperative that IdP metadata must be trusted metadata.
