Explanation

Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an open standard that a large corporation could deploy for authorization services for single sign-on (SSO) use across multiple internal and external applications. SAML is an XML-based framework that enables the exchange of authentication and authorization information between different entities, such as service providers and identity providers. SAML allows a user to log in once with a single set of credentials and access multiple applications that trust the same identity provider, without having to reauthenticate for each application. SAML simplifies the user experience, reduces the management overhead, and enhances the security of the SSO process.
