Patent attributes
The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing secure identity propagation in a cloud-based computing environment. One computer-implemented method includes receiving, from a user, a first security response message, transmitting, to the user in response to receiving the first security response message, a second security response message, wherein the second security response message comprises a Token Granting Token (TGT), receiving, from a cloud application, a Service Token (ST) request, wherein the ST request comprises the TGT, verifying the ST request based on the TGT, generating, in response to the verifying, a ST, wherein the ST is used to validate an access request to access a backend system, and transmitting the ST to the cloud application.
