A method begins by a data accessing module of a dispersed storage network (DSN) sending a data access request to a data storage module. The method continues with the data storage module sending an authentication request to an authenticating module. The method continues with the authenticating module outputting a verification request destined for the data accessing module, wherein the verification request includes a verification code that is generated based on the authentication request. The method continues with the data accessing module outputting a verification response that includes a modified verification code that is generated based on the verification code and a credential. The method continues with the authenticating module outputting an authentication response to the data storage module, wherein the authentication response is generated based on the verification response. The method continues with the data storage module facilitating the data access request when the authentication response is favorable. |
