The agent further comprises logic to utilize the encrypted user-specific data from the repository to log into the resource through the network, and in one embodiment, action logic to perform one or more actions as instructed by the connector invoked by the action message. The agent further comprises, in one embodiment, extraction logic for extracting information resulting from of the agent's access to the data resource specified by the connector, and communication logic to communicate a result to the user or to another agent for further use.
