Mediation of entitlement transfers among affiliated domains

A system for mediating entitlement transfers among a plurality of affiliated domains, the system comprising:

• the plurality of affiliated domains communicatively coupled via a network;
• each of the plurality of affiliated domains including a respective computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a software code and an entitlement ledger;
• wherein for at least a first of the plurality of affiliated domains, the hardware processor is configured to execute the software code to:
• receive a request on behalf of a user, the user having an entitlement to an asset in the first domain, the request being received from a second domain wherein the user does not have the entitlement;
• authenticate, in response to the request, the second domain as one of the plurality of affiliated domains;
• authenticate, in response to the request, the entitlement in the first domain;
• transfer, in response to authenticating the second domain and the entitlement, the entitlement to the second domain to enable the user to access the asset in the second domain;
• and
• generate a ledger entry corresponding to the transfer in the entitlement ledger.

A method for use by a system for mediating entitlement transfers among a plurality of affiliated domains, the method comprising:

• receiving, using a hardware processor of the system, a request on behalf of a user, the user having an entitlement to an asset in a first domain of the plurality of affiliated domains, the request being received from a second domain wherein the user does not have the entitlement;
• authenticating, using the hardware processor and in response to the request, the second domain as one of the plurality of affiliated domains;
• authenticating, using the hardware processor and in response to the request, the entitlement in the first domain;
• transferring, using the hardware processor and in response to authenticating the second domain and the entitlement, the entitlement to the second domain to enable the user to access the asset in the second domain;
• and
• generating, using the hardware processor a ledger entry corresponding to the transfer in the entitlement ledger.
