Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) is an application developed by Microsoft that provides users with single sign-on access to systems and applications located across organizational boundaries. It uses a claims-based access-control authorization model to maintain application security and implement federation identity. ADFS can be used in conjunction with Web Application Proxy (WAP).
