Abstract

Techniques for enhanced security for disconnected devices are provided. A request for one or more attributes of a security component is received by the security component, from a requesting device. The one or more attributes are provided to the requesting device, where the requesting device transmits the one or more attributes to a network service, where the security component is not able to communicate with the network service. A token is received from the requesting device, where the requesting device received the token in response to transmitting the one or more attributes to the network service. A level of access is determined for the requesting device, based on validating the token using a predefined configuration of the security component. Finally, the determined level of access is provided to the requesting device.
