Cloud-based authentication of a storage system user

Abstract:

Managing a storage array includes: receiving, by a client-side array services module from a cloud-based security module through data communications on a wide area network, a token representing authentication of user credentials; and managing, by the client-side array services module, a storage array only through data communications on a local area network, including sending, to the storage array, the token with a management instruction.
