• Pseudonyms (a key privacy-enabling technology) • Identifier management (for managing pseudonyms) • Metadata (for expressing configuration and trust-related data to make deployment of SAML systems easier) • Encryption (so that attribute statements, name identifiers, or entire assertions can be encrypted in place) • Attribute profiles • Session management (for single logout) • Mobile device support (to better address their challenges and opportunities) • Identity provider discovery (for deployments having more than one identity provider) See the Executive Overview or Technical Overview for more explanation of these features.
