Abstract: A quorum-based access mechanism can require multiple entities to provide credentials over a determined period of time in order to obtain access to one or more resources in an electronic environment. This can include receiving a request that is signed by multiple signatories, or receiving multiple requests within a determined period that are each signed by a respective and authorized signatory. In some embodiments the receiving of a primary request causes notifications to be sent to other potential signatories, and a specified or minimum number must respond timely with a signed request to have the access granted. The quorum-based access mechanism can function as an additional authorization layer sitting in front of more conventional authorization and authentication mechanisms. In some embodiments a quorum token can be passed with the request, whereby resources in the environment can make access determinations based on the information in the token.
