Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for establishing temporary and permanent credentials for secure remote data access. The system includes a temporary smart card configured to provide a temporary credential for a first device, thereby providing the first device with temporary secure access to a remote data source when the temporary smart card is used with the first device. Additionally, the system includes an enrollment smart card configured to provide a permanent credential for a second device, thereby providing the second device with permanent secure access to the remote data source without presence of the enrollment smart card or the temporary smart card.
