1. A system for transferring authentication protocols between a sensor and a platform, the system comprising:

  • a first input device to, during a pre-boot session;

    verify received data representative of a first authentication factor;

    store the verified first authentication factor; and

    store a credential logically associated with a prior session;

    verify the prior session against a credential logically associated with an immediately previous post-boot environment that includes a defined change, alternation or modification including at least incrementing or decrementing the immediately previous post-boot environment by a defined value;

    upon verifying the prior session, indicate the presence of the credential using a logical indicator;

    at least one circuit communicably coupled to the first input device;

    a data storage device communicably coupled to the at least one circuit, the data storage device including machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one circuit, causes the at least one circuit to provide an authentication engine and causes the authentication engine to, during a current post-boot session;

    communicate a challenge to the first input device;

    receive a payload that includes the verified first authentication factor and the prior session credential from the first input device in response to the communicated challenge;

    verify the prior session credential received from the first input device; and

    generate a credential that is logically associated with the post-boot session, wherein the post-boot session credential includes a pseudorandom alphanumeric string of defined length.
