Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D 🗳️
The relying party is attached to the application or service that a user is trying to access, and it accepts authentication tokens from the user's own identity provider in order to facilitate authentication and access. The other terms provided are all associated with federated systems, but none is the correct choice in this case.

Selected Answer: D
n a federated identity system, the Relying Party (RP) is the entity that accepts authentication tokens issued by the Identity Provider (IdP). The RP uses these tokens to grant access to users without requiring them to authenticate directly with the service. Why Not the Others? Assertion Manager (A): Not a standard term in federated identity systems. Assertions (like SAML assertions) are handled within the IdP or RP but not by a separate entity called an "Assertion Manager." Servicing Party (B): This is not a recognized term in federated identity management. Proxy Party (C): While identity proxies may exist, they are typically intermediaries rather than the final entity that accepts tokens for authentication.

The relying party is also the service provider. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/tfim/6.2.1?topic=configuring-identity-provider-service-provider-roles
