Enabling multitenant data access on a single industrial network

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media storing one or more sequences of program instructions which, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause performing:

• using a gateway device as a single authentication portal, comprising:
• in response to receiving a first authentication request from one or more first computing devices, authenticating the one or more first computing devices on behalf of a first client device using a first set of identity information;
• in response to authenticating the one or more first computing devices,
• obtaining a first set of one or more transactions from the one or more first computing devices,
• queuing the first set of one or more transactions obtained from the one of the one or more first computing devices;
• in response to receiving a second authentication request from the first client device configured to access the first set of one or more transactions, authenticating the first client device on behalf of a second computing device using a second set of identity information that is associated with the first client device;
• in response to authenticating the first client device,
• accessing the first set of one or more transactions from the queue,
• encrypting and sending the first set of one or more transactions accessed from the queue to the first client device.

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a computer-readable storage media coupled to the one or more processors;
• a memory coupled to the computer readable storage media and storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors cause a gateway to:
• in response to receiving a first authentication request from one or more first computing devices, authenticating the one or more first computing devices on behalf of a first client device using a first set of identity information;
• in response to authenticating the one or more first computing devices,
• obtaining a first set of one or more transactions from the one or more first computing devices,
• queuing the first set of one or more transactions obtained from the one of the one or more first computing devices;
• in response to receiving a second authentication request from the first client device configured to access the first set of one or more transactions, authenticating the first client device on behalf of a second computing device using a second set of identity information that is associated with the first client device;
• in response to authenticating the first client device,
• accessing the first set of one or more transactions from the queue,
• encrypting and sending the first set of one or more transactions accessed from the queue to the first client device.
