SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language)

SAML, or Security Assertion Markup Language, is a framework that allows users to securely exchange information about identity and authentication between different web services. It enables single sign-on (SSO), which means you can log in once and access multiple applications without needing to authenticate again. SAML works by sending secure tokens that confirm your identity and permissions, making it easier and safer to manage access to online services while reducing the number of passwords you have to remember. It is widely used by organizations to ensure secure user authentication across various platforms.
