Single Sign On to a Cloud based application

---------

With Access:One installed and configured in your datacentre Sign-on can be extended from within the Datacentre to applications residing in the cloud.

In the example shown, a user has an active Access:One session linked to Application A.

---------

Consider the scenario where the user now wants to connect to Application B.

---------

Application B is also configured to use Access:One to manage its authorisation workflow.

It makes a call to Access:One to determine its authorisation requirements.

In this particular example Application B has Sign-on enabled in its Access:One service definition.

Both Applications are defined as belonging to the Security Realm "Internal Apps" and Application B is recorded as requiring a lower Security Level than Application A.

---------

As we already Trust our user, based on the active session on Application A, there is no need to request additional confirmation of his identity.

Access:One automatically creates a new session for Application B.

---------

Application B receives confirmation from Access:One that the session exists.

---------

Our user has successfully signed on to Application B without any interaction.
