Systems and methods for delegating access to a protected resource

Abstract:

A method for authorizing execution of a first action is disclosed. The method includes: receiving, from a first client server having access to a human resources database of an organization, a first employee structure indicating an employee status associated with each of one or more employees of the organization; receiving, from a requesting device, a first request to execute a first action; generating a second request to obtain approvals for executing the first action; and selectively transmitting the second request to one or more first employees of the organization, the one or more first employees being identified based on the first employee structure.
