Abstract: Techniques for creating, managing, and using SSH certificates with one or more target-specific principals are disclosed. A certificate authority receives a certificate signing request that includes both a user identifier and a resource identifier. The user identifier identifies a user, and the resource identifier represents one or more target hosts. The certificate authority forms a target- specific principal for use in creating the certificate. The target-specific principal indicates both the user and the resource identifier representing the resource(s) for which access is requested. The resource identifier may represent a host class associated with more than one host. Once the certificate authority verifies that the user is entitled to access the requested resource(s), it generates the certificate, signs it, and returns it to the requesting device.
