Abstract
A cloud service access and information gateway receives a first authentication factor for a user in a single sign-on system. The single sign-on system provides access to a plurality of cloud services. The gateway receives, from a user device, a request to access a cloud service of the plurality of cloud services. The gateway compares a context of the request to an access policy for the single sign-on system and grants conditional access to the cloud service based on the access policy.
