What is NOT considered a benefit of using SAML in authentication?

SAML, or Security Assertion Markup Language, is predominantly recognized for its capabilities in enabling single sign-on (SSO), enhancing security, and improving user experience in authentication processes.

The benefit of SSO capabilities is significant because it allows users to authenticate once and gain access to multiple applications without needing to re-enter credentials, simplifying the login process. Enhanced security measures come from SAML's ability to provide stronger authentication mechanisms and encrypted assertions, making it harder for unauthorized users to access sensitive information. Improved user experience results from the seamless flow between applications, which minimizes friction during the login process and allows users to focus on their tasks rather than on authentication hurdles.

However, enforcing user training is not a function or benefit provided by SAML. Training typically deals with how users navigate and utilize systems, which falls outside the realm of what SAML is designed to do. SAML manages authentication and authorization but does not address how users should be trained to utilize systems effectively. As such, it does not have any inherent mechanism or feature that enforces training requirements for users.
