Abstract

Identity provider (IDP) mesh networks and related systems, apparatuses, and methods are disclosed. A first software domain to participate in an IDP mesh network manages first software applications of the first software domain. A first IDP of the first software domain provides access to the first software applications of the first software domain to first users registered with the first software domain responsive to first verified login credentials provided to the first IDP. The first IDP also federates, with a second IDP of a second software domain participating in the IDP mesh network, access of the first users to second software applications of the second software domain responsive to the first verified login credentials.

Claims (36)

1 . A first software domain to participate in an identity provider (IDP) mesh network, the first software domain comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-readable instructions stored thereon, the computer-readable instructions configured to instruct the one or more processors to:

manage one or more first software applications of the first software domain; and

operate a first IDP to:

provide access to the one or more first software applications of the first software domain to first users registered with the first software domain responsive to first verified login credentials provided to the first IDP;

federate with multiple other IDPs of multiple other software domains networked together in a mesh topology within the IDP mesh network; and

federate, with a second IDP of a second software domain participating in the IDP mesh network, access of the first users to one or more second software applications of the second software domain responsive to the first verified login credentials.

2 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are further configured to instruct the one or more processors to provide access to the one or more first software applications of the first software domain to second users registered with the second software domain responsive to federation of the second IDP with the first IDP.

3 . The first software domain of claim 2 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are further configured to instruct the one or more processors to operate the first IDP to match user attributes of a second user provided by the second IDP during federation of the second IDP with the first IDP with registered user attributes associated with a registered first user of the first software domain to reduce duplications of registered users of the first software domain and the second software domain.

4 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are configured to instruct the one or more processors to operate the first IDP to federate, with a third IDP of a third software domain participating in the IDP mesh network, access of the first users to one or more third software applications of the third software domain responsive to the first verified login credentials.

5 . The first software domain of claim 4 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are further configured to instruct the one or more processors to provide access to the one or more first software applications of the first software domain to third users registered with the third software domain responsive to federation of the third IDP with the first IDP.

6 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the one or more first software applications or the one or more second software applications comprises a dealer management system software application.

7 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are configured to instruct the one or more processors to operate the first IDP to provide user attributes of a first user to the second IDP during a federation of the first IDP to the second IDP to enable the second IDP to reduce duplications of registered users of the first software domain and the second software domain.

8 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein the first IDP is communicatively coupled with all other IDPs of the IDP mesh network.

9 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein the IDP is communicatively coupled with only a subset of other IDPs of the IDP mesh network.

10 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein user provisioning from the first IDP to the second IDP is on.

11 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein user provisioning from the first IDP to the second IDP is off.

12 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein user provisioning from the second IDP to the first IDP is on.

13 . The first software domain of claim 1 , wherein user provisioning from the second IDP to the first IDP is off.

14 . One or more servers, comprising:

a network interface to enable communication with a plurality of software domains arranged in an identity provider (IDP) mesh network, the IDP mesh network including multiple IDPs of multiple different software domains networked together in a mesh topology within the IDP mesh network; and

one or more processors communicatively coupled with the network interface, the one or more processors configured to operate a superapp to provide, to users, a platform for accessing software applications provided by the plurality of software domains responsive sign-on credentials for any one of the plurality of software domains.

15 . The one or more servers of claim 14 , wherein the software operations are automobile dealership software applications.

16 . A method of operating an identity provider (IDP) mesh network, the method comprising:

receiving, by a first IDP of a first software domain via a user device, a request from a user registered with the first software domain to access a second software application of a second software domain; and

initiating, by the first IDP, federation with a second IDP of the second software domain to obtain, for the user, access to the second software application, the first IDP and the second IDP networked together in a mesh topology within the IDP mesh network with one or more other IDPs of one or more other software domains.

17 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising:

transmitting, by the first IDP, an assertion to a custom trusted endpoint representing the second IDP;

determining, by the second IDP, whether a sender of the assertion is trusted, whether the assertion is valid, and whether the user has access to the requested second software application; and

minting, by the second IDP, an access token for the user to access the one or more second software applications responsive to determining that the assertion sender is trusted, that the assertion is valid, and that the user has access to the requested second software application.

18 . The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

redirecting, by the second IDP, the user device to provide the requested second software application using the access token; and

launching the requested second software application at the user device.

19 . The method of claim 17 , wherein the assertion comprises a security assertion markup language (SAML) assertion.

20 . The method of claim 16 , further comprising redirecting, by the first IDP, the user device to display a login graphical user interface to receive login credentials from the user responsive to receiving the request from the user to access the second software application.
