Abstract

A disclosed method for providing a non-credentialed user (NCU) with secure access to a remote endpoint of an edge computing platform, generates a support voucher for the NCU wherein the support voucher comprises a temporary ownership voucher including one or more digital signatures establishing a chain of trust from a root of trust to the NCU. The method provides a private key associated with the support voucher to the NCU. Responsive to detecting the NCU, using the private key to log into an edge platform resource and determining that the support voucher is recognized by the edge platform resource, the NCU is authenticated and the support voucher is validated to establish the NCU as a designated owner of the remote endpoint. Responsive to establishing the NCU as a designated owner, the NCU may access the edge platform resource and from there access the platform endpoint.
