Abstract
A method includes receiving a target credential object having administrative rights over a first user account located on a target system. The first user account includes a log-in permission for the target system. The method also includes receiving data indicative of a second user account corresponding to the first user account, wherein the second user account is located on a local system. The method further includes sending a first request to remove the log-in permission from the first user account to the target system using the target credential object. The method still further includes receiving a log-in request corresponding to the second user account on the local system. The method additionally includes, in response to receiving the log-in request for the second user account, sending a second request to add the log-in permission on the first user account to the target system using the target credential object.
