Abstract

System and methods are described for authenticating users across multiple environments within a cloud-computing environment. A system may receive an indication that a user authenticated within a first environment has performed an action specific to a second environment. The system determines whether a previous action was performed by the user specific to the second environment. In response to determining that no previous action was performed, the system retrieves a first token from an authentication database, wherein the first token is associated with authentication of the user within the first environment. The system then validates the first token, and then generates a second token associated with authentication of the user within the second environment.
