Abstract

A method and system for managing access to information stored in a data storage system of an organization is provided. In an embodiment, the data storage system may be configured to receive a request from a requester on a client device to access information stored in the data storage system. In some aspects, upon receiving the request, the first system may determine that an access token identifying the requester is stored in a cache in the data storage system. In some aspects, the data storage system may then retrieve one or more roles from the cache. In some examples, the roles may be associated with the access token. In certain embodiments, the data storage system may then be configured to determine that the requester is authorized to access the information based on the roles and provide the information to the requester on the client device.
