Abstract: A machine has a network interface circuit to coordinate communications with a network. A processor is connected to the network interface circuit. A memory is connected to the processor and the network interface circuit. The memory stores instructions executed by the processor to collect network traffic from the network through the network interface circuit. The network traffic includes on premise identity service user object data and cloud service user object data. Merged user objects are derived from the network traffic. Each merged user object includes user object attributes from the on premise identity service user object data and user object attributes from the cloud service user object data. The merged user objects are utilized to administer access over the network to on premise computation resources and third-party computation resources.
