Abstract
Systems and methods for system login and single sign-on are described. A first application of a first system receives a request to access a protected application of a second system. An assertion is generated in response to the request. The assertion asserts an identity in the first system of a user generating the request. The assertion is validated and first account information corresponding to the assertion is extracted. The first account information is information of a first account of the user in the first system. Second account information is determined that is information of a second account of the user in the second system. A mapping is generated between the first account and the second account using the first account information and the second account information. The mapping is used to provide access to the protected application by the requestor.
