Abstract

Machines, devices, and other objects are configured to use authorization tokens to verify object identities without human input. In examples, the object uses a password to validate the object's identity to an authorization server to obtain an access token for use in multiple applications. In another example, the object uses a certificate to validate the object's identity to an authorization server to obtain an access token. In other examples, any other suitable identifying data may be used to validate the object's identity to an authorization server to obtain an access token. The process of using passwords, certificates, or other validation processes to obtain tokens or other authorization mechanisms allows the object to authenticate themselves without human interaction and to use a single identity to access services from multiple service providers that trust a central authorization server.
