摘要:
Method of authenticating a user in a heterogeneous computer environment. The method may include defining a set of unique prefixes, each prefix identifying a type of user repository; defining a set of abstract repository names, each abstract repository name identifying an address of a user repository; and authenticating the user in the heterogeneous computer environment by assigning a sequence comprising a unique prefix, a reference to an abstract repository name and a unique identifier for the user within the user repository indicated by the reference to the abstract repository name.

摘要:
System and method for storing identity mapping information in an identity management system to enable a user authenticated at a first domain to access a second domain. The method may include digitally signing the identity mapping information by the user; providing the mapping information to an identity management system; and storing the user-signed mapping information after being further digitally signed by the identity management system.
摘要:
A method for authenticating an entity at a first data resource, the method comprising the steps of: sending a first request token from the entity (100) to a token distribution unit (20) to request a first one-way authentication token, the first request token being a function of authentication information provided by the entity (100); sending the first one-way authentication token from the token distribution unit (20) to the entity (100); sending the first one-way authentication token from the entity (100) to the first data resource (200) to authenticate the entity (100) at the first data resource (200); sending the first one-way authentication token from the first data resource (200) to the token distribution unit (20) to validate the first one-way token; and invalidating the first one-way token.

摘要:
A trusted agent for enabling the check of the access of a user operating a first computer system controlled by a first security system to software and/or data on a second computer system controlled by a second security system. The trusted agent includes several functions, including: (a) reception of a user-id for the second computer system and transmission of the user-id to the second security system; (b) retrieval of a shared secret, which is registered in the fist security system and in the second security system, from the second security system; and (3) transmission of the shared secret from the trusted agent to the second computer system.
