The granted patent US12047375B2 outlines a system and method for securely connecting an endpoint device to a remote head end through a security agent. The process involves establishing a secure tunnel connection, transferring a user identifier from the endpoint to the remote head end, and retrieving encrypted authentication credentials associated with a target network component. Upon receiving these credentials, the system automatically injects them into an open portal on the endpoint device, facilitating authentication and connection to the target network component. The patent also specifies that the target network component may be cloud-based and includes provisions for developing a system profile based on the endpoint's network attributes.

Additionally, the patent details various functionalities, such as monitoring specific ports for receiving encrypted credentials, erasing these credentials from the endpoint's memory after use, and handing off the connection to a web browser on the endpoint device. The claims emphasize the importance of security and efficiency in managing connections to network components, ensuring that sensitive information is handled appropriately throughout the process. The system's design aims to streamline user authentication while maintaining robust security measures.
