System and method for concurrent security connections

A method of establishing concurrent network connections from a client computer, said method comprising:

• receiving a resource request at the client computer;
• in response to the receiving, searching an association table accessible from the client computer, the association table containing a plurality of stored active credentials, wherein each stored active credential corresponds to a different security domain;
• in response to the searching, determining if an applicable active credential is found in the association table, wherein the applicable active credential corresponds to the resource request;
• in response to determining that the applicable active credential is found in the association table:
• retrieving the applicable active credential from the association table;
• and
• accessing the requested resource using the retrieved applicable active credential;
• and
• in response to determining that the applicable active credential is not found in the association table:
• defining, by the client computer, a new active credential;
• storing the new active credential in the association table;
• and
• accessing the requested resource using the new active credential.

An information handling system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a memory accessible by the processors;
• one or more nonvolatile storage devices accessible by the processors;
• a concurrent network connection tool to execute network connections for a client computing device, the concurrent network connection tool being effective to:
• receive a resource request at the client computing device;
• search an association table accessible from the client computing device, the association table containing a plurality of stored active credentials, wherein each stored active credential corresponds to a different security domain;
• determine if an applicable active credential is found in the association table, wherein the applicable active credential corresponds to the resource request;
• retrieve the applicable active credential from the association table in response to determining that the applicable active credential is found in the association table;
• access the requested resource using the retrieved applicable active credential;
• define a new active credential in response to determining that the applicable active credential is not found in the association table;
• store the new active credential in the association table;
• and
• access the requested resource using the new active credential in response to defining the new active credential.

A computer program product stored in a computer operable media for executing concurrent network connections, said computer program product containing instructions for execution by a client computer, which, when executed by the client computer, cause the client computer to implement a method comprising:

• receiving a resource request;
• in response to the receiving, searching an association table accessible from the client computer, the association table containing a plurality of stored active credentials, wherein each stored active credential corresponds to a different security domain;
• in response to the searching, determining if an applicable active credential is found in the association table, wherein the applicable active credential corresponds to the resource request;
• in response to determining that the applicable active credential is found in the association table:
• retrieving the applicable active credential from the association table;
• and
• accessing the requested resource using the retrieved applicable active credential;
• and
• in response to determining that the applicable active credential is not found in the association table:
• defining, by the client computer, a new active credential;
• storing the new active credential in the association table;
• and
• accessing the requested resource using the new active credential.
