Tenant grouping for secure transport of content

A distribution network communicates content to tenant groups in a secure manner. An engine of the distribution network receives content created utilizing an application having different customers and partners. The engine also receives: a first identifier indicating a customer of the application with which a tenant is associated, and a second identifier indicating a partner of the application with which the tenant is associated. The engine references a stored database table to correlate the first identifier and the second identifier. Based upon the first identifier and the second identifier, the engine evaluates whether the tenant is to be provided access to the content. The engine may provide the tenant with the content according to an access right determined from the first identifier and the second identifier. Certain embodiments may find particular use disseminating content to new tenants of a customer, based upon prior distribution to other tenants of that customer.
