What is federated authentication?
Siloed customer identities cause onboarding friction, lost revenue, and operational overhead. Identity federation enables your customers and partners to log in across applications securely without re-authentication. Identity federation can be enabled using the OIDC and SAML protocols for both custom apps and off-the-shelf apps.
