Abstract

Authenticating a client device to a service to allow the client device to access a resource provided by the service. A client device obtains a secondary credential that is associated with a primary credential and that is generated as being usable by a particular set of devices including the client device to indirectly gain access to the service through the primary credential. While outside of an enterprise network, the client device requests access to the service, including sending the secondary credential to an enterprise gateway. Based at least on sending the secondary credential to the enterprise gateway, the client device receives a resource from the service. The resource is received based at least on the enterprise gateway having forwarded the primary credential to the service after verifying that the secondary credential is valid and that the client device is in the particular set of client devices.
