Abstract:
Techniques for resource access authorization are described. In one or more implementations, an application identifier is used to control access to user resources by an application. A determination is made whether to allow the application to access the user resources by comparing an application identifier received from an authorization service with a system application identifier for the application obtained from a computing device on which the application is executing.
