Assertions

SAML is defined in terms of assertions, protocols, bindings, and profiles.

An assertion is a package of information that supplies one or more statements made by a SAML authority. SAML defines three different kinds of assertion statement that can be created by a SAML authority:

  • authentication
  • attribute
  • authorization decision
