Proxy service for two-factor authentication

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to two-factor authentication with a Hardware Security Module (HSM). In response to a login attempt, the HSM indicates that two-factor authentication is required. To generate the second authentication factor, a management console is accessed using credentials. The management console generates the second authentication factor and provides the second authentication factor to the client. The client then provides the second authentication factor to the HSM to complete the two-factor authentication operations.
