Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating authentication of a user with a plurality of applications are described. One method includes authenticating a user with a first secure application based on information received from a smart credential stored on a mobile device via a local wireless connection. The method includes obtaining a remote challenge from a remote authentication service and a mobile challenge, signing the mobile challenge with a private key, and transmitting a signed version of the mobile challenge, the remote challenge, and a public key to the mobile device. The method further includes receiving a signed version of the remote challenge and a certificate indicating validation of the mobile challenge, and transmitting the signed version of the remote challenge to the remote authentication service. Based on receiving an authentication result from the remote authentication service, access is granted to a remote secure application via the browser.
