Abstract
A system and method for accessing and using one or more networked services of a cloud computing infrastructure by a user of a client computer includes an identity-based access management system that is configured to receive a request for a session via an API to use a specific service of the one or more networked services. A credential store includes a credential library that receives and stores credentials for authorizing and enabling the session with the specific service of the one or more networked services. A target service is configured to authorize and enable the session based on the received credentials. A secrets management system is configured to authenticate the user and the client computer to access and use the specific service authorized by the target service, and to generate a lease to a credential that is transmitted to the client computer to authorize the session with the specific service.
