Abstract
According to one embodiment, an apparatus may store a plurality of tokens. The apparatus may receive a first token indicating that access to a resource has been requested by a device. The apparatus may determine at least one token-based rule based at least in part upon the first token. The at least one token-based rule may condition access to the resource upon a second token. The apparatus may determine the geographic location of the device based on a token in the plurality of tokens. The apparatus may determine, based on the geographic location of the device, that the second token should be requested from an entity and transmit a request to the entity for the second token. The apparatus may receive the second token from the entity and generate a session token based at least in part upon the first token and the second token.
