Home of the Overt Software SAAM – Shibboleth ADFS/Azure AD Authentication Module
With more and more Shibboleth organisations starting to use Microsoft’s “Active Directory Federation Services” & Azure AD, there becomes a need to seamlessly log on to both Shibboleth and ADFS / Azure resources.  ADFS / Azure resources such as SharePoint, Office 365 and Exchange (to name a few), need to work alongside the more traditional Shibboleth resources like Learning Management Systems (such as BlackBoard/Moodle), Library systems (Heritage) and many online e-resources.

Using these systems users find that they need to log on to ADFS and Shibboleth separately causing multiple logins thus preventing a true Single Sign-On (SSO) environment (this is against Overt’s ethos of True SSO).  Utilising Overt’s Shibboleth ADFS/Azure AD Authentication Modules (SAAM) overcomes the need for separate Shibboleth and ADFS / Azure AD logins.  SAAM simultaneously logs the user into both ADFS / Azure AD & Shibboleth.
