First Claim
1. A method of shared page access control among cloud objects in a distributed cloud environment, the distributed cloud environment including management system coupled for data communications to a plurality of cloud objects, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the management system from a requesting cloud object, a request to access a shared page;
discovering, by the management system, one or more page attributes of the shared page, wherein the one or more page attributes of the shared page comprise attributes specified by one or more cloud objects of the distributed cloud environment;
identifying, by the management system in dependence upon the page attributes, one more access control measures to perform;
