Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for securely establishing secretless and remote native access sessions. Techniques include identifying a client configured to participate in remote native access sessions, wherein the client has a remote access protocol file that has been modified to include an identifier associated with the client; sending a prompt to the client to establish a secure tunnel connection with a connection agent using the identifier associated with the client; and authentication the client. The techniques may further include accessing target identity information associated with one or more target resources; receiving from the client a token that identifies a target resource from among the one or more target resources; obtaining, based on the token, a credential required for secure access to the target resource; and initiating, using the credential, a remote native access session between the client and the target resource.

Native remote access to target resources using secretless connections

The disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for secure and efficient resource access using distributed directory caching techniques. Techniques include obtaining, from a directory service, client directory data associated with a client; providing the client directory data to a computing device associated with the client for caching on the computing device; identifying a request from the client; receiving, from the computing device, the client directory data that was cached on the computing device; and evaluating the request based on the received client directory data.

Distributed directory caching techniques for secure and efficient resource access

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for security protection against threats to network identity providers. Techniques include identifying a first request from a client for access to a secure network resource; redirecting the client to an identity provider. The identity provider may be configured to authenticate the client and provide the client with data signed using a first identity provider key. Further techniques include identifying a second request from the client, the second request including a doubly-signed version of the data, verifying the doubly-signed version of the data using a second identity provider key corresponding to the first identity provider key and a second client key corresponding to the first client key; and allowing, conditional on a result of the verifying, the client to access the secure network resource.

Security protection against threats to network identity providers

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for securely and seamlessly provisioning credentials for use by personal computing devices. Techniques include obtaining a session identifier; making available an encoded representation to a personal computing device, the encoded representation encoding the session identifier; wherein the personal computing device is configured to: decode the encoded representation, access an identity credential stored on the personal computing device, encrypt the identity credential using a first cryptographic key, and send, to a mediator resource, the session identifier and the encrypted identity credential; receiving, from the mediator resource, the session identifier and the encrypted identity credential; and storing the encrypted identity credential.

Efficient and secure provisioning and updating of identity credentials

Disclosed embodiments relate to uniquely identifying and validating identities based on electronic file fingerprints. Techniques include identifying an identity associated with a computing device; accessing fingerprinting data associated with an electronic file stored on or transmitted from the computing device; generating, based on a diversity of different properties of the fingerprinting data, a profile for the electronic file; accessing a repository storing profiles corresponding to a plurality of identities; comparing the generated profile with one or more of the stored profiles; determining whether the generated profile matches a stored profile, from the repository of stored profiles, associated with the identity; and validating, conditional on the matching, the identity.

Identity verification based on electronic file fingerprinting data

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for authentication through generating and communicating encoded representations containing unique application fingerprints, e.g., metadata. Techniques include receiving an access request, receiving application metadata, identifying a unique verification token, generating an encoded visual representation including the metadata and verification token, making available to the encoded visual representation for scanning by a user for verification of the metadata. Further techniques include requesting access to a secure resource, transmitting metadata, scanning an encoded visual representation including the metadata and a verification token, and sending the verification token to a security server to complete an authentication process.

Secure authentication through visual codes containing unique metadata

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for securely communicating data via encoded scannable codes. Techniques include identifying data to be communicated, identifying fictive data, accessing a manipulation factor, generating a scannable code comprising codes corresponding to the data and fictive data manipulated according to the manipulation factor, and making the code available for decoding by a scanning device. Further techniques include scanning a scannable code via a scanning device, separating the scannable code into multiple codes according to a manipulation factor, decoding the code(s) corresponding to the data to obtain the data, and refraining from decoding the code(s) corresponding to the fictive data. Techniques relating to other embodiments include identifying multiple data elements to be communicated, accessing multiple manipulation factors, generating a plurality of manipulated scannable codes corresponding to the data elements, and making the scannable codes available for decoding by a scanning device.
