The disclosed technology provides for authenticating access to servers using enterprise credentials. A method can include: generating, by a client device operating within an enterprise environment, a request to access a destination server including a token authenticating a user of the client device, transmitting the request to a computer system that can use the token to obtain the SSH certificate signed by an SSH certificate authority (CA), retrieve, from a data store, authorized group information for the user based on the token, and mint the SSH certificate with the retrieved information. The method can include receiving the SSH certificate with the authorized group information and returning the request and the SSH certificate with the authorized group information to a server to access the destination server. The server can be preconfigured with authorized group credentials corresponding to destination servers, which can include the destination server.
