A company uses SAML federation with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to provide internal users with SSO for their AWS accounts. The company's identity provider certificate was rotated as part of its normal lifecycle Shortly after users started receiving the following error when attempting to log in:

“Error: Response Signature Invalid (Service: AWSSecurityTokenService; Status Code: 400; Error Code: InvalidIdentityToken)”

  • B. During the next certificate rotation period and before the current certificate expires, add a new certificate as the secondary to the identity provider. Generate a new metadata file and upload it to the IAM identity provider entity. Perform automated or manual rotation of the certificate when required.

  • D. During the next certificate rotation period and before the current certificate expires, add a new certificate as the secondary to the identity provider. Generate a new copy of the metadata file and create a new IAM identity provider entity. Upload the metadata file to the new IAM identity provider entity.
