Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for authentication in a computer network system based on security credentials issued for client hosts by a remote security authority are disclosed. In response to detection that a client host is prevented from obtaining security credentials from the remote security authority for use in accessing a target host, the client host can obtain an emergency security credential from a storage of emergency security credentials. The emergency security credential with an error state indication can be send from the client host to the target host for use in the authentication.
