Abstract
A system and method for integrating additional functionality into a login system which includes registering a login extension operative to receive notification of an event generated by the login system. The login extension provides additional functionality and response to the received notification. The login extension is registered by the login system and authenticated to ensure that the login extension has proper access rights. An event manager of the login system communicates login events to the registered login extension which then provides additional desired functionality.
