Configuring SAML 2.0 authentication

As a Remedy Single Sign-On administrator, you can configure Remedy SSO server to authenticate users through SAML 2.0.

The service provider (SP) hosts and protects the services that an end user accesses. Remedy SSO is configured as an SP for BMC products. The identity provider (IdP) authenticates users and provides details of the authentication information to the SP.
