An organization is implementing an identity solution that allows users to authenticate once and access both on-premises applications and cloud-based SaaS platforms. Which component is essential in this hybrid architecture?
When providing federated identity, a service provider (such as Active Directory Federation Services or similar technologies) issues security tokens that allow users to authenticate once and access resources in both environments without re-authenticating. It establishes and maintains trust relationships, performs claims transformation when necessary, and enables Single Sign-On across the hybrid environment.
A federation service provider is essential in a hybrid federated identity architecture because it serves as the intermediary that manages trust relationships between the organization's identity provider and service providers across both on-premises and cloud environments.
