IdP

Identity Provider

Definition

An IdP is a system that creates, maintains, and manages digital identities and provides authentication services to relying applications. Enterprise IdPs like Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Ping Identity serve as the authoritative source for user identity, handling authentication flows via SAML, OIDC, and SCIM.

The IdP model centralizes authentication rather than delegating it to individual applications.
