Abstract

See full text

A computer system has a management service, such as a distributed directory, having a plurality of objects and an access control mechanism. The computer system also has a resource, such as a data store, with a security system. A first object in the management service represents a requester and a second object represents the resource. A broker has access to the management service and the resource, and is operative to determine whether the first object has rights to access the second object, and if such rights exist, allow the requester to access the resource.
