Methods for managing a federated identity environment using security and access control data and devices thereof

Abstract:

Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic manager apparatuses, and systems that assist with managing a federated identity environment includes performing one or more first access control checks on a client upon receiving a request to access one or more web applications. A new signature including data associated with the performed one or more access control checks is generated. Next, the client is redirected to a first server with the generated signature to determine when to authorize the client to access the requested one or more web applications. The client is granted access to the requested one or more web applications when the client is determined to be authorized to access the requested one or more web applications based on one or more second access control checks enforced on the client using the generated signature, and wherein data associated with the enforced one or more second access control checks is included in a response signature.
