# SDG CTS Integration Kit

The SDG CTS Integration Kit allows PingFederate to integrate with applications that are protected by SDG Conversion Token Service (CTS).

## Components

* SDG CTS IdP Adapter

  * Allows an identity provider enterprise to extend the SDG domain to include partner applications with a variety of protocols, such as SAML, WS-Federation, OAuth, and OpenID Connect.

  * Uses the CTS to validate and authorize tokens for use with PingFederate.

* SDG CTS SP Adapter

  * Allows a service provider enterprise to accept SAML or WS-Federation assertions and provide single sign-on (SSO) to applications that require a SDG-issued token.

  * Uses the CTS to create a SDG token based on the attributes in the assertion.

  * Can be configured to authorize the token against a specific resource.

## Intended audience

This document is intended for PingFederate administrators. If you need help during the setup process, you can find more information in:

* The following sections of the PingFederate documentation:

  * [Managing IdP adapters](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/administrators_reference_guide/pf_managing_idp_adapters.html)

  * [Managing SP adapters](https://docs.pingidentity.com/pingfederate/latest/administrators_reference_guide/help_adaptermanagementtasklet_spadaptermanagementstate.html)

* The following SDG resources:

  * [SDG Token Service](https://www.sdgc.com/products-old/sdg-token-services/)

## System requirements

* PingFederate 11.3 or later

* SDG Token Service 1.5.4 (or later), acting as a secure token service between PingFederate and a policy server.

  * Available to download at no cost from [SDG Token Service](https://www.sdgc.com/products-old/sdg-token-services/).
