More Information
Summary:Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for authenticating a user. The application server receives a user log in request and determines if a unique identification accompanies the received user log in request. The application server uses the unique identification to authenticate the identity of the user. The application server determines if the unique identification has been previously received by searching a first database to see if the unique identification was already stored in the first database. If the unique identification is not in the first database then the application server stores the unique identification and grants the user access to the one or more applications hosted on the application server.
