Implementation

Details about the implementation of Cirrus at Texas A&M University are documented here.

Authentication Payload​

Cirrus returns a standard XML SAML response.

tip

You can test what authenticating to the Cirrus Proxy looks like by using their demonstration service provider.

Onboarding New Applications​

New service providers are added via compiled metadata that's published online for Cirrus to read from. Identity Security runs this metadata service and can add and update entries on your behalf.

Federation Details​

Identity Security has an internal Texas A&M System multilateral federation used to power the available IdPs in the Cirrus Proxy environment.
