Abstract

A policy-controlled authorization system for managing tokens used to access services in a cloud based multi-tenant system. The policy-controlled authorization system includes a local application that executes on a client device, a policy component including a plurality of policies, and a mid-link server, coupled to the client device. A request for access to a service on a remote application running on a remote instance of a web server is provided by the local application. A token is required to access the service. A correlator correlates the token with the plurality of tokens for identifying a policy from the plurality of policies associated with the token. A token inspector authorizes the token for accessing the service based on the correlation. Based on the authorization, either the token is authorized for access to the service via the remote application, or the token is blocked when unauthorized to prevent access to the service.
