Systems and methods of performing single sign-on authentication from multiple platforms when establishing a connection to a database are described. An application can securely access a database based on user credentials provided during a prior authentication. In an embodiment, single sign-on is accomplished by relying on existing and emerging authentication, security service, security mechanism, and wire protocols, enabling the creation of drivers to accommodate various platforms and databases. In another embodiment, a pure type 4 Java Driver is used, eliminating dependencies on native operating functionality.
