Overview
A SAML protocol is represented by the sequence of requests and responses for obtaining assertions and performing identity management. The protocols allow service providers to request or query for an assertion, ask for a subject to be authenticated, create and manage name identifier mappings, for federated identities, and request near-simulatenous logout of related sessions ("single logout").
