Abstract

A system includes a host network entity associated with a computing network. The host network entity may establish a first connection with a client network entity via a provisioner account in response to a connection request from a client network entity. The host network entity may receive a digital certificate from the client network entity via the first connection. The digital certificate may include an instruction set with a first instruction to generate an operator account for the client network entity. The host network entity may perform a validation of the digital certificate and the instruction set based on a public key associated with a certificate authority that is trusted by the host network entity, and responsive to the validation, the host network entity may generate the operator account based on the first instruction and establish a second connection with the client network entity via the operator account.
