Shibboleth

Single-sign on based on SAML
It works on the WAYF (Where Are You From) service


Architecture:
The WAYF service will send a request, receive a re-direct and then connect if all goes to plan when user tries to access resource

The user can also be re-directed to login page of user’s organisation, e.g. their university logon page
