Ping Identity PAP-001 Exam - Topic 2 Question 2 Discussion

Posted by Brandon on Oct 05, 2025 at 08:30 PM

A PingAccess administrator needs to configure PingAccess to validate tokens. Which two options can the administrator use? (Choose 2 answers)

Suggested Answer: A, D

PingAccess validates access tokens using Access Token Managers, which are typically backed by PingFederate or a generic OIDC provider.

Exact Extract:

''PingAccess validates tokens through Access Token Managers, which can be configured against PingFederate or a common OIDC provider.''

Option A (PingFederate) is correct --- the most common token provider.

Option B (Kerberos) is not supported for token validation.

Option C (SAML provider) is incorrect --- PingAccess does not natively consume SAML assertions.

Option D (Common OIDC provider) is correct --- tokens can be validated against any OIDC-compliant IdP.

Option E (PingAuthorize) is an authorization engine, not a token provider.
