A system, apparatus, method, and machine readable medium are described for establishing trust using secure communication protocols. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: generating a first authentication-related communication at an authentication server on behalf of a relying party the first authentication-related communication being directed to a client device having one or more authenticators; signing the first authentication-related communication using a first key of a self-signed certificate from a decentralized public key infrastructure (PKI); establishing a first secure communication channel with a relying party app on the client device using a trusted secure communication infrastructure; transmitting the first authentication-related communication with the signature to the relying party app over the first secure communication channel; establishing a second secure communication channel with an authentication client on the client device using a trusted secure communication infrastructure; transmitting a second key of the self-signed certificate from the decentralized PKI to the authentication client over the second communication channel; providing the first authentication-related communication from the relying party app to the authentication client; and the authentication client using the second key to validate the signature generated over the first authentication-related communication with the first key. |
