Native remote access to target resources using secretless connections

Abstract

Disclosed embodiments relate to systems and methods for securely establishing secretless and remote native access sessions. Techniques include identifying a client configured to participate in remote native access sessions, wherein the client has a remote access protocol file that has been modified to include an identifier associated with the client; sending a prompt to the client to establish a secure tunnel connection with a connection agent using the identifier associated with the client; and authentication the client. The techniques may further include accessing target identity information associated with one or more target resources; receiving from the client a token that identifies a target resource from among the one or more target resources; obtaining, based on the token, a credential required for secure access to the target resource; and initiating, using the credential, a remote native access session between the client and the target resource.
