| Summary: | An authentication process for a client and a target service to perform mutual authentication. A combined code is received that comprises a combined code hash of at least two sets of data from which an encoding scheme of the at least two sets of data can be determined. The two sets of data comprise a first set of data that includes a first hash of a public key associated with a certificate used to establish a secure channel with a target service, and a second set of data that includes a credential for authentication. The certificate can be validated with the first set of data included in the combined code. In response to a successful validation of the certificate, the credential from the second set of data can be provided to the target service for authentication. |
