US Patent 11553352 Complex composite tokens

Technologies are shown for trust delegation that involve receiving a first request from a subject client and responding by sending a first token having first permissions to the subject client. A second request from a first actor includes the first token and responding involves linking the first actor to the subject client in a trust stack and sending a second token to the first actor with second permissions, the second token being a first complex token that identifies the subject client and the first actor. A third request from a second actor includes the second token and responding to the third request involves linking the second actor to the first actor in the trust stack, and sending a third token to the second actor partner with third permissions, the third token being a second complex token that identifies the first actor and the second actor.
