Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method and apparatus for multiple token access to thin client architecture session. In one embodiment, a user is associated with a session using an authenticated token. A user may access a session by authenticating the user'"'"'s identity. An authenticated token for the user is created and the user is granted access to the session. As a result, the user will be able to access the session without the physical token by authenticating the user'"'"'s identity using a passphrase or biometric identifier. In one embodiment, a user is able to access a session from one terminal when the session is already being accessed from another terminal. The user presents an authenticated token associated with the session, and the session is disconnected from the old terminal and input and output information is rerouted to the new terminal.
