Dell Patent for Cross-Domain Authentication in Cloud-Native Environment
Summary
The USPTO has published a patent application from Dell Products L.P. for a system and method for cross-domain authentication in a cloud-native environment. The application details how a control panel can manage node authentication tokens to facilitate access to compute nodes via a web browser.
What changed
This document is a publication of a patent application (US20260087086A1) filed by Dell Products L.P. The application describes a method and system for cross-domain authentication within a multi-cloud platform. Key components include a control panel that receives and stores node authentication tokens (NATs) from compute nodes, associating them in a token mapping database. This enables access to compute nodes through a conventional web browser by generating an access URL with relevant mapping information.
While this is a patent application and not a regulatory rule, it outlines novel technical approaches to cloud security and authentication. Companies involved in cloud infrastructure, multi-cloud management, and cybersecurity solutions may find the disclosed methods relevant for developing or enhancing their own security protocols. There are no immediate compliance obligations or deadlines associated with this patent publication.

Abstract
Disclosed methods and systems include receiving, by a control panel of a multi-cloud platform, a node authentication token [NAT] corresponding to a compute node in the multi-cloud platform. The compute node may include a token generator that generates the NAT and sends the NAT to the control panel. The control panel may receive the NAT from the compute node via a secure administration connection between the control panel and the compute node. The control panel may then store the NAT in a token mapping database that associates the NAT with the node. The control panel may then perform operations to access the compute node from a conventional web browser. In at least one embodiment, these browser operations may include retrieving mapping information for the compute node from the token mapping database and generating an access uniform resource locator that includes a network address for the compute node and the mapping information.
