Abstract
The disclosed technology is generally directed to web authentication. In one example of the technology, authentication of a broker with an identity provider is initiated. The broker is a first application that is executing in a top-level frame. At the broker, from a second application that is executing on a first descendent frame that is a descendant frame of the top-level frame, a token request is received. Via the broker, a first token is requested from the identity provider on behalf of the second application. The first token is associated with an authorization of secure delegated remote access of at least one resource by the second application. At the broker, from the identity provider, the first token is received. Via the broker, the first token is provided to the second application.
