Abstract

Disclosed is a method and system for utilizing an Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) to authenticate an HTTP session between a communication device and an online application program. The method includes registering a communication device on an IMS, and generating an authorization token which is sent to the communication device. The communication device then embeds the authorization token in HTTP request communication directed to the IMS. The IMS, after verifying the authorization token, forwards the HTTP request and token to a selected Web server that hosts an online application to authenticate an HTTP session.
