## What is Exostar Managed Access Gateway (MAG)?

Exostar Managed Access Gateway (MAG) is a federated identity and access management platform designed for secure partner collaboration across organizational boundaries. It provides a centralized hub for managing external identity federation, enabling organizations to extend system access to third-party partners without manually provisioning credentials or managing individual accounts.

MAG operates within the Exostar Network, a pre-vetted community of over 200,000 organizations across 175 countries that have been verified against identity, security, and compliance requirements relevant to the defense industrial base (DiB).

Key capabilities include:
- Federated SSO, allowing external partners to authenticate once and gain access to approved applications
- Delegated administration, enabling application owners to assign access decisions to partner organizations while retaining oversight
- Role-based access controls (RBAC) at the user level for granular permission management
- Pre-verified partner onboarding using credentials already validated within the Exostar Network
- High-assurance authentication and global identity validation services

MAG is built for regulated industries and supports compliance with ITAR, DFARS, and NIST 800-171 requirements. It targets B2B identity and access management use cases where organizations need to collaborate securely with suppliers, customers, and partners without duplicating onboarding processes or creating separate login credentials for each relationship.
