Authentication in SharePoint 2013

copy from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=313915

Three types of authentication: User, App, Server-to-Server

User Authentication:

• Windows claims-based authentication ( NTLM, KerberosAD , basic)
• Forms-based authentication
• SAML token-based authentication

The key elements of SAML token-based authentication are the following:

• Configure the IP-STS with the set of authentication providers (such as AD DS, databases, and others) corresponding to organization and partner accounts.
• Configure the IP-STS with the set of relying parties corresponding to the web applications that use SAML token-based authentication and claims mappings. 
• Configure the SharePoint 2013 farm with the token signing certificate of the IP-STS, the corresponding claims mappings as done on the IP-STS, and the name of the IP-STS as a trusted security token issuer.
• Configure the web application with the name of the IP-STS as a SAML identity provider.
• *Identity Provider STS (IP-STS) sts=security token service

App Authentication:

• Low-trust Apps ( trust low-trust apps, you must have an Office 365 subscription > relies on the Windows Azure Access Control Service (ACS)
• High-trust Apps( for Internet hosts )

Server-to-Server Authentication

Server-to-server authentication enables a new set of functionality and scenarios that utilize cross-server resource sharing and access, including the following:

• eDiscovery Discover and place holds on content in the SharePoint farm, in Exchange Server 2013, on file shares, and in other SharePoint farms.
• Exchange task synchronization Allows users to synchronize SharePoint Server 2013 and Project Server tasks with Exchange Server 2013 and have them appear in Outlook 2013.
• Site mailboxes Provides SharePoint Server 2013 users with team email, hosted by Exchange Server 2013, on a SharePoint site.
• SharePoint 2013 Hybrid Federated search, Business Connectivity Services, and Duet Online between an on-premises SharePoint 2013 farm and SharePoint Online.
