Remarks

A claim is a unique identifier that represents a specific user, application, computer, or other entity. It includes bits of identity information, such as e-mail address, name, or age. It enables that entity to gain access to multiple resources, such as applications and network resources, without entering their credentials multiple times. It also enables resources to validate requests from an entity.
