MULTI-SERVICE SCEP-CERTIFICATE BASED AUTHENTICATION

Disclosed are various embodiments for implementing an multi-service simple certificate enrollment protocol (SCEP) based authentication system. First, a computing device can send a certificate signing request (CSR) for a token signing certificate to a simple certificate enrollment protocol (SCEP) server. Then the computing device can receive the token signing certificate from the SCEP server. Next, the computing device can generate a authentication token that authenticates a user of the computing device with an authentication service. Subsequently, the computing device can sign the authentication token with the token signing certificate to create a signed authentication token. Finally, the computing device can send the signed authentication token to the authentication service to authenticate the user of the computing device with the authentication service.
