A federated identity standard is Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML). SAML is a standard that enables the exchange of authentication and authorization information between different parties, such as service providers and identity providers, using XML-based messages called assertions. SAML can facilitate the single sign-on (SSO) process, which allows a user to access multiple services or applications with a single login session, without having to provide their credentials multiple times. SAML can also support the federated identity management, which allows a user to use their identity or credentials from one domain or organization to access the services or applications from another domain or organization, without having to create or maintain separate accounts. 802.11i, Kerberos, and LDAP are not federated identity standards, as they are related to the wireless network security, the network authentication protocol, or the directory service protocol, not the exchange of authentication and authorization information between different parties.
