Federation Protocols

Federation protocols are methods that enable different organizations or systems to securely share and verify user identities without requiring everyone to have separate accounts. Think of it as a shared passport system: you log in once with a trusted provider, and then you can access multiple services seamlessly. This simplifies user access, improves security, and reduces password management troubles. Examples include systems like Single Sign-On (SSO) used by companies and apps, allowing users to authenticate once and access various connected platforms efficiently.
