1. OASIS SAMLv2.0 and Liberty WSFv2.0 Deployment Notes circa Mid-2006

2. OASIS SAMLv2.0 and Liberty WSFv2.0 Deployment Notes More that 1 Billion Identities Likely you use it for: –Banking –University –Government (DoD) –Mobile data (esp. Asia, Europe)

3. Certified Implementations, through U.S. Government, Ping Identity, or Liberty Alliance Programs Over 60 products have received certification or been otherwise validated for conformance or interoperability. These include SAML and Liberty ID-FF and ID-WSF products from the largest, and some smaller, identity management vendors. One consequence is that a significant majority of enterprises around the world already have the potential to run such services, through plug-ins and such to existing systems.

4. Adoption in other standards and recommendations This family of technologies have been adopted in a wide-ranging variety of technologies, from mobile services, to digital television broadcasting, and in healthcare. It is part of the trusted mobile platform, and is incorporated in ebXML Registry and the Globus Toolkit (OGSA). Notably, Microsoft and Sun have created an interoperability profile to bridge technologies. In addition, Microsoft has adopted SAMLv2.0 in its forthcoming InfoCard system.

5. Open Source or Developer Tools Several open source implementations are available, and range from deployment domains that are platform-focused to those that are global in scope. One such is the Shibboleth implementations of SAMLv1.1, with SAMLv2.0 imminent. Several of these are certified for interoperability

6. Wide-ranging Deployments General applications range from network devices to mobile handsets, and include consumer services and hardened smart cards. Several of these are deployments in the 10s of millions. Infrastructure and embedded systems implementations Education, Government, Defence, eHealth and Regulatory domains Financial services, both for consumers, through corporates, and within the banking and payment infrastructures Airlines and related businesses, ranging from maintenance to travel services Supply chain management, and ERP and HR systems

7. Protocol gateways and bridging systems These represent an important step in interoperability, and they also signify an increasing maturity in the marketplace
