EPFL

EPFL Identity Provider (SWITCH edu-ID, tenant)

EPFL's SAML identity provider is delivered by SWITCH edu-ID as a hosted, EPFL-branded IdP. The relationship is a real institutional fact — EPFL authenticates its community through it and its entity is federated into eduGAIN — but the engineering belongs to SWITCH, so it is recorded as a tenant relationship rather than credited to EPFL.
