Inbound Federation for Cisco IT
- Incoming federated identity into the
enterprise
- Reduces legal risk by trusting the
federated identities owned by partners
instead of creating those identities
internally
- Partner acts as IdP (Identity
Provider)

ROI Use cases for Inbound Federation
1. A supplier employee leaving the supplier but still able to access Cisco Apps
2. Creation of fake profile to match to a real company to take advantage
of the company's Cisco.com access
3. Partner employee sharing the password. Unable to track a transaction to a user
Loss in revenue due to lack of Inbound Federation
