Abstract

This session will provide an overview of the Shibboleth System software, its role within an IdM infrastructure, related concepts, the value it provides, and typical implementation sequences. Shibboleth deployment can be separated into three phases: Web SSO authentication, attribute delivery for authorization, and federated authentication/authorization. This session will explore the effect on existing infrastructure and business processes during each phase.
