ABSTRACT:
The system and method described herein provides multi-context security policy management in a networked computing infrastructure. The system and method may generate a plurality of security contexts regarding different security characteristics of the communication between a computing device and the networked computing infrastructure. The computing device then requests access to at least one specific element of the computing infrastructure. The security policy definitions of the at least one specific element are compared with one or more of the security contexts to determine whether access to the specific elements should be granted.
