Abstract

A method for implementing organization-specific policy during establishment of an autonomous connection between computer resources includes evaluating a relative priority between default credentials and alternative credentials; and using the highest priority credentials to establish a connection between the computer resources. The alternative credentials are based on organization-specific policy and provide for autonomous connections between computer resources differently than the default credentials.
