TOKEN BASED SECURITY PROTOCOL FOR MANAGING ACCESS TO WEB SERVICES

摘要

Token based techniques for managing client access to individual methods or resources provided by an application or service can be implemented at the application server hosting the application or service. Such techniques include performing client authentication and authorization based on information associated with the client as specified in a security token generated for the client. The security token associated with the client enables a service provider to monitor and control client access to the methods of the service on an individual basis.
