Abstract

The present disclosure provides a data mapping protocol that securely associates the account user information stored in the user pool with corresponding account identity information stored in the identity pool, such that all the account information is searchable, regardless of which pool the information is in. In an embodiment, a mapping service, which may be provided by the resource provider, obtains a set of login credentials and authenticates the login credentials with the user pool. In response to receiving the login credentials and an authentication request, the user pool returns the account credentials associated with the login credentials. The account credentials are used to access the account identifier, and other associate account identity data in the identity pool. Thus, the login credentials from the user pool and the account identifier from the identity are obtained and associated with each other in a searchable data structure.
