What is ADFS?

Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) is a software component in Windows Server that provides single sign-on (SSO) access to applications across organizational boundaries. It securely shares digital identity and entitlement rights, allowing users to access web applications or services with a single set of credentials, improving security and user experience.
