Unified directories: This allows for a consistent and centralized directory service that can manage user identities across both private and public cloud environments, facilitating seamless authentication and access control. D. Identity federations: This enables the establishment of trust relationships between different identity providers, allowing users to authenticate across multiple systems (private and public clouds) without needing separate credentials for each.

B. policy-based tokens D. identity federations 1. Policy-Based Tokens: SAML can use policy-based tokens to enforce access control policies across different cloud environments. These tokens carry specific attributes and policies that dictate what resources a user can access and under what conditions, thereby ensuring consistent access control in mixed cloud environments. 2. Identity Federations: SAML supports identity federations, which allow different organizations or cloud environments to trust and accept each other’s user credentials. This is crucial in a mixed cloud environment, enabling seamless and secure access to resources across private and public clouds by federating identities.
