Subject: Gap Analysis Use Case 11: Enterprise to Cloud SSO
--- This discussion thread is to start an on-list discussion on the Gap Analysis of individual use cases. Use case numbers refer to the use cases as described in the 'OASIS Identity in the Cloud TC Use Cases' Version 1.0, Working Draft 02, 15 December 2011, which is available at http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=44915&wg_abbre v=id-cloud The information below describes the current state. You are invited to respond on-list to this thread with any comments, insights, additions, etc. All input will be gathered from the list and consolidated into the next revision of the Gap Analysis document. --- Use Case 11: Enterprise to Cloud SSO Short description: A user is able to access resource within their enterprise environment or within a cloud deployment using a single identity.

Relevant applicable standards: - SAML Analysis notes: Possible GAPs identified: ---
