Abstract
A method and apparatus for a network-wide authentication and authorization mapping system for a network is provided. The global authentication and authorization mapping system enables a seamless transition from one web-based application in the network configuration to another web-based application in the network configuration, including a single sign-on capability for users. There are no localized security enforcement processes required to further authenticate a user.
