1. A method of managing a web single sign-on (SSO) application with a common set of uniform resource locators (URLs), comprising: defining a first servlet mapping including a description of a protected URL resource pattern; defining a second servlet mapping including a description of an unprotected URL resource pattern; determining display logic support to establish if display logic of the web SSO application supports both the first servlet mapping and the second servlet mapping; configuring the display logic of the web SSO application based on the determination; defining an intercepting filter configured to review a received request for a resource, to determine if a source issuing the request is an authorized source, and redirecting the requesting source to a protected URL resource pattern for the requested resource if the source is an unauthorized source; and registering URL patterns for the common set of URLs in the intercepting filter, the URL patterns including definitions of the protected URL resource pattern and the unprotected URL resource pattern.
