ABSTRACT:
Methods, systems, and program products for a client application provide child passwords mapped to a parent password authorized for login to a secure network resource server. A child user logs in to the client application by entering the child password. When a child user properly requests a secure resource from the secure network resource server, the client application uses the authorized parent password to login to the secure server and retrieve a secure resource without communicating the child password to the secure server. The child user login session is administered by the local application pursuant to access rules or limitation parameters associated with the child password. Child passwords may be set to expire. The client application may also monitor secure server access by a child user; monitored use may also be reported, and an access rule or password limitation parameter may be revised in response to monitoring and use reporting.
