If your apps need secure Single Sign-On (SSO) across web, mobile, and APIs, PingFederate Training gives you the practical skills to build it cleanly. In this PingFederate Training program at Ascents Learning (Ascent Learning), you’ll work on real federation setups—Identity Provider (IdP) and Service Provider (SP) roles, SAML 2.0 flows, OAuth 2.0, and OpenID Connect. The focus is not just “what a protocol is,” but how you configure it, troubleshoot it, and make it stable in production.
We cover common enterprise scenarios: integrating with LDAP/Active Directory, mapping user attributes, token signing/encryption, session management, and enforcing policy with the right adapters. You’ll also learn how to handle real problems—clock skew, certificate rotation, metadata issues, incorrect claims, and redirect-loop errors. By the end of this PingFederate Training, you’ll be able to set up partner connections, secure APIs, and support IAM use cases that teams actually depend on. If you’re aiming for IAM, security engineering, or SSO implementation roles, this PingFederate Training is built for hands-on confidence, not theory.
