Abstract

An embodiment controls access to a resource, the access controlled by a multi-tenant system. Embodiments receive, at a web server, a request for the resource from a user via a web browser, the request including a Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) associated with the resource and an identity of a tenant corresponding to the user. Embodiments determine an access policy for authenticating the user that is associated with the resource, the access policy based in part on the identity of the tenant. Embodiments then authenticate the user based on the determined access policy.
