Explanation

In a SAML-based Single Sign-On (SSO) architecture, there are two primary roles: the Identity Provider (IdP), which authenticates users and issues SAML assertions, and the Service Provider (SP), which relies on the IdP for authentication and grants access to its resources. When configuring SSO in Prisma Cloud, Prisma Cloud acts as the Service Provider (SP). The organization's existing identity system (e.g., Okta, Azure AD, PingFederate) acts as the Identity Provider. JIT (Just-In-Time provisioning) is a feature that can accompany SSO, and SAML is the protocol used-neither is the role Prisma Cloud itself plays.
