Abstract
Method and devices for making access decisions in a secure access network are provided. The access decisions are made by one or more portable credentials using data and algorithms stored on or received by two or more credentials. Since access decisions are made by the portable credential or credentials, non-networked hosts or local hosts can be employed that do not necessarily need to be connected to a central access controller or database, thereby reducing the cost of building and maintaining the secure access network.
