Abstract
An information processing system comprises one or more processing devices of at least one processing platform. In one embodiment, the system comprises cloud infrastructure that is configured to validate an externally-generated security token issued to a user, to extract one or more claims from the validated externally-generated security token, and to create a session object to hold the extracted claim or claims. The cloud infrastructure issues an internally-generated security token based on the session object that allows the user to be identified to a protected resource. The internally-generated security token is validated in conjunction with a request from the user for access to the protected resource, and information associated with at least one extracted claim is selectively released responsive to validation of the internally-generated security token. Access of the user to the protected resource is granted or denied based on the selectively-released information.
