Abstract
Embodiments of the invention are directed to methods and systems for software module binding. Cryptographic keys and challenge elements can be exchanged between a first software module and a second software module to create a binding between the first software module and the second software module. As a result, a first software module can securely and authentically access sensitive data and functionality at a second software module, while unauthorized software modules can be prevented from accessing the sensitive data and functionality.
