A method for controlling access to a plurality of computing resources in a distributed computing environment can comprise the steps of: an application role server, responsive to receiving a certificate request, authenticating the requester and issuing a digital certificate to the requester; an access control node, responsive to receiving a resource access request, granting access to the computing resource to the requester upon ascertaining the requestor's access privileges, or forwarding the resource access request to another access control node.
