User Authentication with SAML

User Authentication with SAML

SAML enables Rosetta to exchange authentication and authorization information, allowing a user to sign in or out of an external system and be automatically signed in or out of Rosetta, or vice versa. Rosetta supports the SAML 2.0 Web Browser SSO profile.
For a more information concerning SAML-based SSO for Rosetta, see http://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/rosetta/integrations/saml
