Federated identities
Federated identities are a way for users to access multiple services or platforms using a single set of login credentials, such as a username and password. Instead of creating separate accounts for each service, users can authenticate through one identity provider, like Google or Facebook. This concept streamlines the login process and enhances security, as users manage fewer passwords. It enables organizations to trust the identity provider to verify a user’s identity, simplifying user management across different systems while maintaining control over personal information.
