SAML Authentication Integration - Allow your users to authenticate using SAML
Version: 0.90, by kyle222
SAML Authentication Integration
This add-on extends vBulletin to be able to consume SAML assertions from identity providers (IdPs).
SAML (security assertion markup language) is a well defined XML-based OASIS standard for exchanging authentication information. It allows identity providers (IdPs) to authenticate users, then single sign-on on to multiple service providers (SPs). SAML is used by many Enterprises and has become the defacto standard for Enterprise authentication into SaaS applications (such as salesforce.com, Google Apps, WebEx, etc.).
Benefits of SAML
Troubleshooting
Server Requirements:
PHP5 with ability to make HTTPS SOAP calls (using SSL)
Notes
This add-on works well with Username Management add-on (Username Management - Control who can change Usernames plus history) allowing users to setup different usernames from the IdP login.
SAML (this add-on) is being used for authentication on https://secure.tricipher.com/forums/. See http://www.myonelogin.com/ for additional SAML information (along with a free IdP implementation for testing).
Permission is granted for anyone to do anything with this add-on.

Benefits of SAML
- single sign-on (SSO)
- ability to use Enterprise credentials (such as Active Directory)
- users do not need to remember separate username/passwords for your forums
