Relying Party

A Relying Party is an entity, such as a website or application, that trusts and depends on a third-party identity provider to verify a user's identity. Instead of managing login details themselves, the Relying Party relies on the identity provider's authentication process to confirm who the user is. This allows for secure, seamless access across different services using a single sign-on or trusted credentials, simplifying user experience while maintaining security standards.
