Secure asymmetric key application data sharing

Abstract:

Aspects of providing single sign on (SSO) sessions are described. An access interval key is generated using an access code as a seed to a key derivative function. The access interval key is encrypted using a public key of an SSO-enabled application to generate an encrypted access interval key for a sign on session. The sign on session is established by storing the encrypted access interval key in a memory location of an SSO session map shared by SSO-enabled applications.
