Abstract
A password for accessing an online service is secured by receiving keystroke information of the password at a kernel level. The password is encrypted prior to inputting the encrypted password to an application program at an application level. The encrypted password is transmitted from the kernel level to the application level over an out-of-band-channel. The encrypted password is forwarded to a server computer associated with the online service. The server computer decrypts the encrypted password back to the password to determine if the client computer is authorized to access the online service.
