Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates security-enabled content caching. The system operates by first receiving a request from a user at a cache server for restricted content, wherein the cache server stores content for an application server. Next, the system determines if the restricted content is located on the cache server. If so, the system determines if the user is authorized to access the restricted content. If the user is authorized to access the restricted content, the system provides the restricted content to the user from the cache server. Providing the restricted content from the cache server eliminates the time consuming operations involved in requesting and receiving the restricted content from the application server.
