Abstract
According to one embodiment, an apparatus may store a plurality of tokens. The plurality of tokens may include a plurality of risk tokens. Each risk token may represent a risk rating. The risk rating may be a numerical value indicating a risk associated with granting a particular user access to a particular resource. The apparatus may identify a set of related risk tokens in the plurality of risk tokens, and generate a composite risk token that represents an arithmetic combination of the risk ratings represented by the set of related risk tokens. The apparatus may then use the composite risk token to facilitate the making of an access decision.
