Abstract

This document describes techniques and apparatuses for securely transferring a single sign-on session between a browser session and a client application. Responsive to a launch request from the browser session, a server sends a launch command to launch the application on the client to transfer the single sign-on session from the browser session to the application. The launch command includes a first security credential and a second security credential. The application then initiates a registration process by sending to the server the first security credential and a client identification unique to the client. The server passes the client identification to the browser session which confirms to the server that the client identification matches the client identification unique to the client. The server then sends the application a third security credential, and the application returns the client identification and an encrypted version of the second security credential relative to the third security credential. Upon receipt and verification of these security credentials, the server establishes the single sign-on session with the application.
