Abstract
A request is received from a client for accessing a resource provided in a network, the request including credential data representing system integrity of at least one component running on the client. In response to the request, one or more credential identifiers identifying the credential data is transmitted to a management server that provisioned the client. Credential reference data is received from the management server based on the one or more credential identifiers. The client is authenticated based on a comparison of the credential data received from the client and credential reference data received from the management server.
