In certain embodiments, a method for synchronizing login processes in a
web environment includes receiving user authentication information for a
particular one of a plurality of access points, each access point
operable to provide a user system that submitted the user authentication
information access to one or more target items. The method includes
authenticating the user authentication information to determine whether
the user system associated with the user authentication information is
authorized to access the one or more target items associated with the
particular access point. The method includes initiating a successful
login to the particular access point if it is determined that the user
system associated with the user authentication information is authorized
to access the one or more target items and automatically propagating the
successful login to the particular access point to one or more of the
other access points based at least on the successful login to the
particular access point.
