Abstract
Techniques are described for separating subdomains as part of a secure login process. For example the subdomains can correspond to an enterprise user or personal user accounts, or both. The login process involves responding to a login request with an assertion, such as for example a redirect based assertion, that includes an encrypted data structure with account and user information necessary for identification of the corresponding subdomain. The encrypted data structure includes browser-, IP address, and user-specific information to thwart a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) security vulnerability, among other things.
