Abstract
Systems and methods for application signing are disclosed. In some implementations, an application package identifier and a password may be received at an application signing server. Upon authenticating the application package identifier and the password, a fingerprint identifying the developer is received. Upon receipt of the fingerprint, the application signing server generates a secure key for the application based on the fingerprint, where the secure key is provided to the developer for inclusion within the application. Upon determining that the application package identifier and the secure key included in a request from an operating system of a mobile device matches an authorized application package identifier and an authorized secure key stored at the application signing server, the application signing server provides the requested list of the one or more APIs to the operating system to grant the application access to the APIs in the list.
