Explanation

SAML 2.0 (Security Assertion Markup Language) is the correct answer because it is specifically designed for enterprise Single Sign-On and exchanges authentication/authorization data via XML-based tokens called "assertions" - exactly matching the question's description. OAuth (B) is an authorization framework that issues JSON-based tokens (JWTs) and is designed for delegated access, not authentication-focused SSO. RADIUS (C) is a network access authentication protocol used primarily for VPN and Wi-Fi logins, not web-based SSO. LDAP (D) is a directory protocol for querying user stores (like Active Directory), not a web standard for issuing tokens.

Memory tip: Think SAML = XML for enterprise login. The "ML" in SAML stands for Markup Language - the same family as XML - which reminds you it uses XML tokens for authentication.
