Abstract

In a communication network wherein a first computing device represents a resource owner and a second computing device represents a resource requestor, the resource owner detects an occurrence of an event, wherein the event occurrence represents a request to access one or more resources of the resource owner stored in a resource residence. The resource owner sends an authorization token to the resource requestor in response to the event occurrence, the authorization token serving as a proof of authorization delegated by the resource owner to be presented by the resource requestor to the resource residence so as to permit the resource requestor to access the one or more requested resources stored in the resource residence.
