Application: Fine-grained authorization as a service via relationship- based access control within a multi-tenant system (Patent ID: US20230351039A1)
The patent filed by Okta Inc. describes an authorization system that provides services for multiple tenant organizations based on standardized data types, authorization models, and relationship tuples. Each organization specifies its own authorization model and relationship tuples, allowing the system to determine user authorization based on these specifications. The system reduces query response latency through techniques like geographic distribution of servers and sharding of data. The method involves receiving authorization models and relationship tuples, making determinations based on these inputs, and responding to authorization queries.
The patent claims detail a computer-implemented method for user authorization in a cloud-based multi-tenant system, involving receiving authorization models and relationship tuples from administrators, determining user authorization based on these inputs, and responding to authorization queries. The method also includes receiving revised authorization models, comparing determinations, and logging requests and responses. Additionally, the patent describes a computer-readable storage medium storing instructions for performing the authorization method and a multi-tenant computer system implementing the method. The system receives authorization models and relationship tuples, determines user authorization, and responds to authorization queries, with provisions for receiving revised authorization models, comparing determinations, and logging requests and responses.
