Abstract

A computer-implemented method for authenticating a request to access a remote resource includes identifying a request from a first device to access a resource located on a second device. The computer-implemented method further includes retrieving one or more encrypted passwords for authenticating access to the resource from a partition of a vault located on the first device. The computer-implemented method further includes comparing the one or more encrypted passwords retrieved from the partition of the vault located on the first device to one or more designated passwords stored on the second device. The computer-implemented method further includes granting the first device access to the resource located on the second device based, at least in part, on the one or more encrypted passwords retrieved from the partition of the vault located on the first device matching the one or more designated passwords stored on the second device.
