Patent number: 10129217Abstract: A first information handling system receives a security challenge and forwards it to a second information handling system. The second information handling system retrieves a private key from a public/private encryption key pair and satisfies the challenge with the private key. The second information handling system forwards the satisfied challenge without divulging the private key. The second information handling system is in a more secure environment than the first information handling system. The challenge may be satisfied by signing the challenge with the private key. Satisfying the challenge may be a step in creating a secure shell connection between the first information handling system and an organization maintaining the first information handling system and the second information handling system.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2015Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: DELL SOFTWARE, INC.Inventors: Carolyn Duby, Mark B.
