Experiencing Ping Identity’s PingFederate
PingFederate from Ping Identity provides SSO, federated identity management (FIM), and customer identity and access management (CIAM). PingFederate can extend employee, customer, and partner identities across domains without passwords. SAML, WS-Federation, and OAuth are some of the identity standard protocols used in PingFederate.
More information about the standards used in PingFederate can be found at the following links:
- SAML: http://docs.oasis-open.org/security/saml/Post2.0/sstc-saml-tech-overview-2.0.html
- WS-Federation: http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsfed/federation/v1.2/os/ws-federation-1.2-spec-os.html
- OAuth: https://oauth.net/2/
- OpenID Connect: https://openid.net/connect/
Before we can install PingFederate, we need to install the Java SDK. Instructions to install Java SDK version 11 can be found in Appendix A.
