Description
The goal of NIH’s Federated Identity service is to give a person the ability to use the same user name, password, or other personal identification to access multiple applications or data sources securely and seamlessly by relying on the identity provider’s authentication process rather than NIH’s. Federated Identity service is enabled through the use of open industry standards and/or openly published specifications.
