Abstract
Methods and systems disclosed herein extend an entity's private cloud security model to the entity's public cloud. Public cloud access permissions are defined, in accordance with a security model implemented in the entity's private cloud, for one or more of the entity's public cloud resources. The public cloud permissions are pushed or otherwise provided to an access module within the private cloud. Upon receiving a request to access a public cloud resource, the private cloud access module is invoked to grant or deny the access request in accordance with the public cloud access permissions. Similarly, upon receiving a request to access a private cloud resource, the private cloud access module is invoked to process the access request in accordance with private cloud access permissions, thereby beneficially enabling users to interact with a single access interface regardless of whether the resource reside within the entity's cloud platform.
