A cloud computing system includes a first set of network computers providing a pool of virtual-enterprise resources integrated from lower-level cloud infrastructure including software as a service, platform as a service and infrastructure as a service. A second set of network computers form a soft gate providing access to the pool of virtual-enterprise resources by enterprise users accessing the cloud computing system via an external network. A third set of network computers form a business box providing for creation, management and use of certification cards to define the virtual-enterprise resources and to control use of the virtual-enterprise resources by the enterprise users. The soft gate and business box implement a card-creation flow that creates customized certification cards, and a card-usage flow that validates user privileges based on presentation of certification cards as a condition to granting access to virtual-enterprise resources.
