Microsoft Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals SC-900 Practice Question
Your organization wants to allow employees to sign in once and seamlessly access several Software as a Service (SaaS) applications such as Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and ServiceNow, to support single sign-on and avoid storing separate passwords in each service. Which function must be provided by the identity provider participating in this scenario?
Host each SaaS application and determine its licensing terms
Maintain off-site backups of the data stored in every SaaS application
Validate user credentials and issue security tokens that applications accept for access
Encrypt all network traffic between user devices and the SaaS applications
An identity provider (IdP) is responsible for authenticating users and issuing the security tokens that SaaS applications (relying parties) trust. By validating the user's credentials and providing a signed token, the IdP enables single sign-on across multiple services. Hosting the applications, encrypting all traffic, or backing up application data are important tasks, but they are not core responsibilities of an IdP.
