Abstract

Methods, systems and computer program products authenticate client requests to access server resources. A server receives a certificate containing multiple data fields associated with the client making a request. The server selects data from at least one of the certificate data fields and filters the selected data using at least one predefined filter rule associated with the requested server resources to authenticate the client request. Combinations of filter rules may be utilized and the server may select data from various combinations of data fields.
