Abstract: A method, system, and computer usable program product for propagating information in a trust chain processing are provided in the illustrative embodiments. Upon a trust client invoking the trust chain processing, a mapped security information is received, the mapped security information being stored in a memory or a data storage associated with a data processing system. A set of security information attributes are located from the mapped security information according to a configuration. The set of security information attributes are packaged to form a packaged security information. The packaged security information is issued to a target system, the target system being distinct from the trust client that invoked the trust chain processing. The locating, the packaging, and the issuing collectively form monitoring the trust chain processing. A next component in the trust chain processing may be invoked. The invoking may occur before, after, or during the monitoring.
