Security Assertion Markup Language
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an open standard used for securely sharing authentication information between an identity provider (like your company's login system) and a service provider (like a cloud application). When you log in once, SAML allows your identity to be verified and trusted across multiple systems without needing to re-enter passwords. It uses secure, standardized messages to exchange this information, ensuring that users can access various services seamlessly and securely while maintaining control over their credentials.
