ADFS Federation Training for Developers

This is the ultimate lab for you as .NET developers who want to learn how to get your application to use ADFS and federation. A world-class lab that gives you an opportunity to learn how to use the Windows Identity Foundation (WIF), and how federated identities work native to the .NET and Microsoft platform.

We look at how federation and ADFS work, which all developers who want to use ADFS should learn, as well as how to best use ADFS and federation in your application. We review the management and single sign-on of external identities such as Google ID, Facebook, LinkedIn, and other ADFS installations at partners, customers, suppliers, etc.

Fredrik “DXter” Jonsson and Hasain “The Wolf” Alshakarti

Both are Enterprise Security MVP in Sweden’s ultimately leading expert in digital identities and authentication solutions in the Microsoft platform. Hasain Alshakarti and Fredrik Jonsson have jointly developed this unique lab for developers who want to learn how to write and manage federation with ADFS in applications.
