This post introduces the capability to protect SaaS applications using Cloudflare Access by integrating with their SAML identity providers. It details how Cloudflare Access acts as a SAML identity provider, converting JWTs generated from various identity sources (SSO, MFA, device posture) into SAML assertions for SaaS applications. Cloudflare Workers are used to perform this JWT to SAML conversion at the edge, maintaining performance and availability.
