See the discussion document Federated Groups or Federated Members

  • A virtual organization (VO) uses Grouper as a group management system. Members of the VO authenticate to use VO applications and services via Shibboleth; the VO does not create accounts in the traditional sense, instead relying on federated authentication. The VO manages access and authorization by means of the groups defined in Grouper. The members of the groups are federated users.
