1. A method for state driven orchestration of authentication components to access a resource protected by an access manager framework, comprising:

  • receiving a request to access a resource from a client;

    determining required authentication components for the requested resource and a sequential order of the authentication components based at least in part upon the received access request;

    requesting a first set of credential information required for a first authentication component to authenticate the client requesting access to the resource;

    upon successful validation of the received first set of credential information, generating an authentication context including information indicating a second authentication component of the determined sequential order of the required authentication components, the authentication context stored at the client;

    requesting a second set of credential information required for the second authentication component to authenticate the client requesting access to the resource;

    receiving the second set of credential information along with the authentication context from the client;

    determining which authentication component is to receive the second set of credential information based at least in part upon the authentication context received from the client; and

    sending the second set of credential information to the second authentication component.
