    Abstract: Various techniques and mechanisms for sharing remote resources among a trusted group are disclosed. A credential management agent utilizes a resource credential for a first user to access a secure resource corresponding to the first user for a second user by at least validating a second user and validating a consent of the first user to allow the second user to access the secure resource using the resource credential for the first user. The secure resource resides on a remote server system accessible via one or more application program interfaces (APIs). A platform management agent provides an interface for shared resource-agnostic credential sharing. The platform management agent validates credentials for the second user as belonging to a trusted group and forwards a request for access to the secure resource for the second user to the credential management agent. In response to receiving the resource credential for the first user to access the secure resource, the platform management agent accesses the secure resource on behalf of the second user to allow the second user to utilize the secure resource.
