  • Publication number: 20100071046
    Abstract: A system and method which may allow a user to login a web service provider from a third party site without leaking the user's login information to the third party site. A service request interceptor may authenticate the third party site to make sure that a service request is from a third party site registered with the web service provider or its associated sites, and then instruct a badging server to send an HTML markup to the third party site to enable a login page of the web service provider to be displayed as a pop up window, outside of the third party site. Before sending the instructions to the badging server, the service request interceptor may check whether the user has already logged in the web service provider, and authenticate a user to make sure that the user is registered with the web service provider. Since the user may interact with the web service provider directly, the third party site may be bypassed and users' credentials may be better protected.
