Arizona State University

ASU Shibboleth SAML 2.0 Identity Provider

ASU's own Shibboleth Identity Provider, entityID urn:mace:incommon:asu.edu, asserting the scope asu.edu. ASU publishes the signed entity descriptor from its own host at shibboleth2.asu.edu (200, 1559 bytes, application/xml) as well as through the InCommon MDQ service. Advertises SAML 2.0 over HTTP-Redirect and HTTP-POST SingleSignOnService bindings, with mdui:UIInfo carrying the institution's display name, information URL and privacy statement. Institution-operated by definition, machine-readable, and the single most under-catalogued programmable asset a university runs. It is not a public developer API: an application cannot obtain an assertion without being registered as a service provider in the federation.

x-operator-evidence: The signed EntityDescriptor names OrganizationName "Arizona State University" and
  shibmd:Scope "asu.edu"; the metadata is served from shibboleth2.asu.edu, ASU's own registrable domain,
  and the SSO bindings point at the same host.

  note: 1559 bytes of application/xml SAML metadata from ASU's own host. The SSO endpoint itself is not
    a pointer — it requires a SAMLRequest — so it is recorded in x-sso-endpoint.
