Supported Protocols
The IAM solution supports a wide range of industry-standard integration protocols, enabling secure authentication, authorization, and seamless integration with various applications and services. Below is a list of the key protocols supported:
SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language)
Purpose: SAML is used for Single Sign-On (SSO) to enable users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple applications.
Use Case: Commonly used for enterprise applications, SAML facilitates secure communication between Identity Providers (IdPs) and Service Providers (SPs).
Industries: Widely adopted across industries like finance, telecom, and healthcare for secure SSO.
LDAPS (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Secure)
Purpose: LDAPS is used for securely accessing and managing directory services, including user and device data.
Use Case: Primarily used for integration with enterprise directories like Microsoft Active Directory (AD), enabling authentication and user management.
Industries: Common in IT, finance, and telecom sectors for centralizing user management across different systems.
OAuth (Open Authorization)
Purpose: OAuth is an open standard for access delegation, allowing third-party services to access user resources without exposing credentials.
Use Case: Often used for API authentication and authorization, as well as granting access to web applications.
Industries: Popular in IT and finance for securing APIs and user permissions for third-party applications.
OpenID Connect (OIDC)
Purpose: OpenID Connect is built on top of OAuth 2.0 and adds identity verification capabilities, making it a preferred protocol for authentication.
Use Case: Used for federated identity management, enabling users to authenticate across multiple platforms using a single set of credentials.
Industries: Suitable for industries like healthcare, telecom, and IT for secure user identity verification
