Abstract
A method for accessing a secure computer resource by a computer application having no human-machine interaction for inputting authentication information comprises: a) a first initialization step comprising the creation of a temporary cryptographic key consisting of applying a cryptographic process to a plurality of information that is invariant over time and of encrypting, using the thus calculated key, authentication data of an account authorized to access a vault with passwords and b) steps for automatic access by the application to the secure computer resource consisting of creating a temporary cryptographic key consisting of applying a cryptographic process to the plurality of information that is invariant over time, reading the credentials file created during the initialization step and decrypting the credentials file with the temporary cryptographic key calculated in the preceding step, then transferring, to the calling application, the data coming from the computer resource.
