Abstract

An example method for managing authentication across multiple devices is described. A first device, having a first privilege level, receives a first authentication input, and in response unlocks. The first device further generates a secondary authentication credential based on the authentication input and transmits this credential to one or more secondary devices, where the one or more secondary devices each have a respective privilege level that is lower than the first privilege level, and the secondary authentication credential causes the one or more secondary devices to unlock. In some embodiments, hierarchical privileges are maintained where the first device has higher authentication privileges than the secondary devices. In some embodiments, secure authentication is implemented through cryptographic device identification, secure channels, and privilege-based access control, while enabling features like device replacement, synchronized state management, and enterprise security controls. Systems and devices configured to perform such methods are also described.
