About Windows Authentication Agent

Authentication Agent allows you to perform strong multi-factor authentication on one computer to get authorized access to another computer where it is not possible to display the user interface or connect any external authentication devices. You can install the Authentication Agent on a workstation or laptop. When an authentication is initiated from a computer using Authentication Agent chain, the Authentication Agent on another computer prompts a restricted browser where user must perform authentication.

IMPORTANT:If both the Windows Client and Authentication Agent are installed on the same workstation, the Authentication Agent is logged on automatically through the SSO feature. If the Windows Client is not installed, user must log in to the Authentication Agent manually.
