Securing web services using Security Markup Assertion Language (SAML)

The Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an XML-based OASIS standard for exchanging user identity and security attributes information. Using SAML, a client can communicate assertions regarding the identity, attributes, and entitlements of a SOAP message. You can apply policy sets to JAX-WS applications to use SAML assertions in web services messages and in web services usage scenarios. Use SAML assertions to represent user identity and user security attributes, and optionally, to sign and to encrypt SOAP message elements.

Procedure

  1. Learn about SAML.
  2. Configure SAML application support.
  3. Develop and assemble a SAML application.
  4. Deploy the SAML application.
