Description: A federated credential is a type of digital identification that allows users to access multiple services and applications across different identity providers without the need to create and manage multiple accounts. This system is based on a federated identity model, where credentials are recognized and accepted by various domains or platforms. Federated credentials typically include information such as username, email address, and other attributes that help verify the user’s identity. This approach not only simplifies the user experience by reducing the number of passwords they need to remember but also enhances security by centralizing identity management. Furthermore, federated credentials are essential in various environments, including business, educational, and online services, where access to different applications and resources is required. The interoperability between different authentication systems is one of its most notable features, allowing users to utilize a single credential to access multiple services, which in turn facilitates collaboration and information sharing across different platforms.
