Abstract
A network communications method communicates a certificate from a client machine to a server machine through a security module. The protocol used between the client and server machines is HTTP or an equivalent protocol, and a security protocol such as SSL or an equivalent is implemented between the client machine and the security module. The steps of the method include inserting the certificate into a cookie header of a request in HTTP or an equivalent protocol, and then transmitting the request from the security module to the server machine.
