Patent ID: 8261331

Claim:
A computer hardware system for security management for applications and resource objects associated with multiple user registries, comprising: a memory; and a processor have executing therein an integrated console configured to manage a plurality of resource objects in the memory, each of said resource objects having a corresponding security realm defining a set of users, wherein the memory includes a mapping of a plurality of roles to different operations on the resource objects and also to different users permitted to access said integrated console; and the processor includes console security management logic coupled to the integrated console and configured to perform equating a user defined in a first realm with a user defined in a second realm as a singular user, authenticating access, through the integrated console, to said resource objects for said singular user; and causing first and second applications, respectively associated with the first and second realms, to be rendered in the integrated console, wherein the authenticating includes authenticating access for said user defined in said first realm, and authenticating, based upon the mapping, access for said user defined in said second realm.
