Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for facilitating impersonation for accessing resources through an access management system. When a user ('impersonator') requests access to impersonate another user ('impersonatee'), the access management system may generate security data having two parts. One part may include a first security key that is sent to the impersonator and a second part may include a second security key that is sent to the impersonatee. Receipt of the second security key notifies the impersonatee about a request for impersonation to access a resource according to access permitted to the impersonatee. The impersonatee, if consenting to impersonation, may provide the security key received to the impersonator, thereby implicitly providing the impersonator with trust at run-time to access the resource. Upon verification of both security keys, by the access management system, access to a resource is provided to the impersonator based on access to the resource permitted to the impersonatee.
