Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for distributed security system authorization. Client device authentication instructions are executed on a client device to determine if authentication data accessible by the client device authentication instructions are stored at the client device. If the authentication data are stored at the client device, the client device authentication instructions generate authenticated user data and store the authenticated user data at the client device. If the authentication data are not stored at the client device, the client device authentication instructions generate a login environment that allows a user of the client device to input login data. The login data are provided to a verification process that in response to verification provide the authentication data to the client device.
