While configuring using Ubisecure SSO as an IDP and ADFS2 as an SP, the following error is displayed:

ID4270: The 'AuthenticationMethod' used to create a 'SAML2' AuthenticationStatement cannot be null.

The event viewer log shows:

The Federation Service encountered an error while processing the SAML authentication request.

Solution

By default, the response created by Ubisecure SSO does not contain an optional authentication context class reference (AuthnContextClassRef ) value, which ADFS2 expects. Set an authentication context class value for each of the authentication methods used with this SP. This setting is made using Ubisecure SSO Management from the Home -> Methods tab, as described in the Ubisecure SSO Management document. ADFS2 supports a subset of the SAML authentication context classes. For more information, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh599318.aspx
