Explanation
A SAML binding defines how SAML protocol messages are transported over standard communication protocols and messaging formats, such as HTTP POST, HTTP Redirect, or SOAP. In other words, bindings specify the technical 'carrier' mechanism - how assertion messages are packaged and transmitted between Identity Providers and Service Providers. SAML assertions contain the actual security statements, SAML protocols define the request/response message structure, and SAML profiles define how assertions, protocols, and bindings combine for specific use cases.
