METHOD, SYSTEM AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO RESOURCES IN WEB APPLICATIONS

摘要

A method (300) for controlling access to resources of a data processing system is proposed. The method includes the steps under the control of a server entity (105) of: receiving (306) a request for accessing at least one selected resource from a client entity (110), the request being addressed to a software component (225, 230) running in a software container (255) adapted to interface the component with a software platform of the server entity, intercepting (309-312) the request by a filter (265) of the container, requesting (324) an authorization to access the at least one selected resource of the intercepted request to an authorization service, and returning (363) an error message to the client entity in response to a denial (330) of the authorization, or passing (348) the request to the component in response to a grant (339) of the authorization.
