Abstract
Methods and systems for faster and more efficient smart card logon and for giving a client device full domain access in a remote computing environment are described herein. Fast smart card logon may be used to reduce latency and improve security. For example, the system may reduce the number of operations (e.g., interactions) between a server device used for authentication and the client device. These operations may include fetching a user certificate from the smart card or signing data. Fast smart card logon may also improve security by optionally avoiding PIN (or other credential) transmission over networks, and to enable single sign on from an authentication event (e.g., Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) authentication) using a smart card to the domain logon without resorting to PIN caching.
