Abstract
Improved techniques for secure access to cloud-based services via a gateway proxy. The improved techniques can efficiently manage remote access to cloud-based services by local processing agents in a secure manner using an intermediate authentication token issued by a gateway proxy to authorized local processing agents. The intermediate authentication token can be used to obtain authentication credentials of service providers that are needed to access the cloud-based services that are offered by service providers. In some embodiments, the authentication credentials of service providers need only be distributed to the gateway proxy and need not be distributed beyond the gateway proxy. The improved techniques are well suited for used with robotic process automation systems in which local processing agents, such as software agents, perform user tasks in an automated fashion.
