Relying Party Trust

Relying Party Trust refers to the trust relationship established between a service provider (the relying party) and an identity provider. In simpler terms, when you log into a website using an account from another service (like Google or Facebook), the website trusts that the identity provider correctly verifies who you are. This trust allows the website to accept your login without requiring a separate account. It ensures secure and seamless access to services while maintaining user privacy and security by relying on the identity provider's authentication process.
