Products.SAML2Plugins

The SAML2Plugins package provides PluggableAuthService plugins that use the SAML 2.0 authentication standard. The plugins act as a Service Provider (SP) and expect to talk to an Identity Provider (IdP). The PluggableAuthService is a Zope user folder product that can be extended in modular fashion using so-called plugins.
