🎉 Thank You samlify Team - Complete SAML SSO with Encrypted Assertions!

Hi @tngan and the amazing samlify team! 👋

I wanted to share a huge THANK YOU and showcase what we've accomplished using your incredible library! 🚀

🏆 What We Built

Using samlify, we've successfully implemented a complete enterprise-grade SAML SSO solution:

Complete SAML 2.0 SSO Flow with proper signature verification
AES-256-CBC Encrypted Assertions - working perfectly!
Dynamic Metadata Loading for real-time IdP/SP synchronization
Custom User Attributes (firstName, lastName, age, gender, email, username, displayName)
Comprehensive Testing Suite with automated flow verification
Production-Ready Architecture with both IdP and SP applications

🔐 Key Achievement: Encrypted Assertions

The biggest win was getting encrypted SAML assertions working flawlessly:

  • IdP encrypts assertions using SP's public certificate
  • SP decrypts using its private key
  • Complete user profile data transmitted securely
  • All 7 custom attributes properly extracted

🚀 Repository

Check out the complete implementation: saml-sso-encrypted

Features comprehensive documentation, automated testing, environment templates, and step-by-step setup instructions.

💡 What Made This Possible

samlify's flexibility with:

  • Custom loginResponseTemplate for attribute handling
  • isAssertionEncrypted: true configuration
  • Dynamic metadata loading capabilities
  • Excellent certificate management
  • Tag replacement functions for custom user data

🙏 Impact

This implementation now provides:

  • Enterprise security with encrypted user data transmission
  • Complete user profiles in SAML assertions
  • Easy deployment with automated testing
  • Production readiness for real-world SSO needs

Thank you for creating such a powerful, flexible, and well-designed SAML library! samlify made what seemed like a complex enterprise integration surprisingly achievable.

The documentation and examples were incredibly helpful throughout the development process.

Keep up the amazing work! 🎊


Built with ❤️ using samlify v2.10.1
