1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
installing an application on a mobile device, wherein the application is received by the mobile device via a push notification service, wherein the application is configured to enable passwordless authentication to an ancillary device of the user;
installing a driver and a daemon on the ancillary device, wherein the driver and the daemon are received by the ancillary device via the push notification service;
generating, at the mobile device, an encrypted key pair comprising an encrypted public key associated with a user of the mobile device;
receiving, at the mobile device, a signed certificate of the encrypted public key associated with the user of the mobile device;
causing, at the ancillary device of the user via the driver and the daemon, responsive to receiving identity data associated with the user that is input at the ancillary device, generation of a local account of the user associated with the signed certificate of the encrypted public key;
receiving, at the mobile device of the user and responsive to generation of the local account, an authentication input of the user; and
causing, at the ancillary device and based on determining that the authentication input of the user is valid, transmission of instructions to allow performance of an authorized operation at the ancillary device.
