Abstract
Aspects described herein relate to methods, devices and systems that allow for a client device, as part of a remote access or cloud-based network environment, to map external user identities to desktops and applications. Local user accounts can be dynamically generated on a virtual delivery agent. A mapping of the local user account to an external identity can be secured using signed tokens and maintained by a broker machine that allocates resources for the deployment of particular applications to the client device from the virtual delivery agent. This allows for the removal of any dependency on an Active Directory for maintaining user identities or federated sign-on services, greatly simplifying the management of user identities within the system and allowing for greater compatibility across client devices.
