Abstract
Techniques for accelerated authentication include receiving first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion. It is verified whether the first portion of user credentials is valid. If the first portion of user credentials is valid, then second data that indicates a valid value for the second portion of user credentials for the first user is sent. Other techniques include receiving first data that indicates a first portion of user credentials for a first user but not a second portion of user credentials for the first user. A first message that indicates the first portion of user credentials is sent to a remote process that initiates authentication of the first user based on the first portion of user credentials before receiving second data that indicates the second portion of user credentials for the first user.
