About Liberty
The Liberty Alliance is a consortium of business leaders with a vision to enable a networked world
in which individuals and businesses can more easily conduct transactions while protecting the
privacy and security of vital identity information.
To accomplish its vision, the Liberty Alliance established an open standard for federated network
identity through open technical specifications. In essence, this open standard is a structured version
of the Security Assertions Markup Language, commonly referred to as SAML, with the goal of
accelerating the deployment of standards-based single sign-on technology.
