USER ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT DEVICE THAT CAN CO-OPERATE WITH A SINGLE SIGN-ON DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a device (MG_PROV) for managing the accounts (CPT) of users of a plurality of applications (APP), which can co-operate with at least one single sign-on device (SSO) that can provide access to at least one application (APP) for at least one user (U) by means of a primary authentication (CFP). The management device (MG_PROV) comprises: a unit (M_RD11) for the primary reading of an identity directory (A_ID) comprising referrer identifiers (UMA) relating to the users (U) of the plurality of applications (APP); a unit (M_CR11) for the primary creation of at least one user account (CPT) for an application (APP); a unit for the primary association (M_ASSOC1) of the created user account (CPT) with the referrer identifier (UMA) of the user (U) for which the user account (CPT) was created; a unit (M_IDT) for determining a reference user database used by the single sign-on device (SSO); a unit (M_RD12) for the secondary reading of an application association table (APP_TAB) comprising the identifiers of the applications provided (APP_ID) and the corresponding application references (APP_SSO) of the applications managed by at least one single sign-on device (SSO); and a unit (M_TX) for sending the single sign-on device (SSO) a message (MSG) containing (i) the created user account (CPT), (ii) a user reference (U_SSO) of the single sign-on device (SSO) corresponding to the user account created (CPT), and (iii) an application reference (APP_SSO) of the single sign-on device (SSO) corresponding to the application (APP) for which the user account (CPT) was created.
