SomaliREN Identity Federation (SIF)

SomaliREN Identity Federation (SIF), established in November 2021, is a pivotal component of the Somali higher education and research ecosystem. SIF implements a robust Single Sign-On (SSO) solution that simplifies and secures access to a wide range of digital resources, both within SomaliREN and globally.

Streamlining Access with Single Sign-On

SIF’s implementation of Single Sign-On means that users from the Somali higher education and research community need to remember only one set of credentials. This access simplicity extends to nearly all services offered by SomaliREN, enhancing user experience by removing the need to manage multiple usernames and passwords. With SIF, once users log in, they can seamlessly
navigate through various resources without the hassle of re-authenticating.
