Abstract
A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and system for tagging and replacing tagged credentials with target credentials unknown to a client. The method includes; receiving an access request from a client to access a protected resource on a target server, injecting credential field tags into a credential form used to access the protected resource, auto-submitting the credential form on the client computer, replace tagged credentials with target credentials, submitting the target credentials to the target server, and updating the target credentials if the target credentials are invalid or expired without intervention by the client.
