  • Methods systems and articles of manufacture for implementing user access to remote resources
    Patent number: 9787664
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for implementing user access to remote resources residing on an external domain. Various implementations include authenticating and authorizing a user on a first system and receiving user request to access remote resources. The first system invokes processes or modules to initiate a new session to perform auto logon on behalf of the user on a second system by using stored user's credentials and subdomain delegation techniques without user intervention. The second system authenticates and authorizes this new session to allow user access to remote resources residing thereupon. The first system further prepares the user's system to take over the new session by setting cookie(s) and also by redirecting the URL so the user may continue to use the new session to access the desired remote resources residing on the second system.
