Abstract: A system and a method for secure communication in a mobile computing device involve obtaining, by a first program installed on the mobile computing device, an access credential from an authentication server on behalf of a second program installed on the mobile computing device. The second program submits the access credential to a remote resource as proof that the second program has been authenticated by the authentication server. Upon successful verification of the access credential, the remote resource allows the second program to access data.

Abstract: A mobile device may include an authenticator and a processor. The authenticator may store one or more profiles associated with one or more keys to access one or more servers. The processor may embed one of the keys in data to be communicated to one of the servers to request access from the one of the servers. The authenticator may compare the one or more profiles to a set of parameters based upon at least one of a user's identification information, a selected program to request access, identification information of the one of the servers, identification information of an authentication register, to determine whether to select one of the profiles. If the authenticator selects one of the profiles, the authenticator may generate the one of the keys based on the selected one of the profiles.
