Abstract
A technique for performing authentication includes a first device receiving security data from a second device that shares its network connection with the first device. The first device applies the security data received from the second device when requesting authentication to a secured resource on the network. For example, the security data may include a token code or other data that may be used as a token, such as identification information about the second device.
