When SAML authentication is used to sign in to the PVWA, which service performs the actual authentication?
When SAML authentication is used, the Identity Provider (IdP) performs the actual authentication. The IdP is responsible for verifying the user's identity and providing the authentication token to the Service Provider (SP), which in this case is the application the user is trying to access, such as PVWA.

During the SAML SSO process it is the identity provider (IdP) that authenticates the user and returns the authorisation back to the service provider in order for them to use the application. https://docs.cyberark.com/PAS/Latest/en/Content/PAS%20INST/SAML-Authentication.htm
