Rapid IdP Subscribers
As a Rapid IdP subscriber, management of your Federation IdP is being performed by the AAF. This will affect how you perform your yearly compliance check. This Rapid IdP Checklist outlines the Federation Rules where compliance is met automatically due to your AAF Rapid IdP subscription.
However, your organisation is still responsible for compliance to all the AAF Federation Rules. You need to review the checklist and the Federation Rules to ensure your organisations compliance.
