Abstract

Methods are provided for generating an enterprise key for access to an enterprise network via another access network, as part of a secondary authentication to an external data network through another access network. In these methods, an enterprise authentication device obtains, via a first access network, a request to authenticate a user device onto an enterprise network. The user device is connected to the first access network. The method further includes the enterprise authentication device authenticating the user device to obtain access to the enterprise network via the first access network and generating the enterprise key for the user device to provide access to the enterprise network via a second access network.
