Abstract: Features are disclosed for authentication of mobile device applications using a native, independent browser using a single-sign-on system. An authentication module within the mobile application can direct the mobile device's native browser to a URL to initiate authentication with an authentication appliance. The mobile browser can receive and store a browser-accessible token to indicate previous authentication performed by the user. The mobile application can receive from the application appliance and store a client application ID token that may be presented to network services for access. A second mobile device application may direct the same browser to the authentication appliance. The authentication appliance may inspect the persistent browser-accessible token and issue a second client application ID identity to the second application without collecting additional authentication information, or collecting additional authentication information that is different from the first authentication information.
