System and method for out-of- band application authentification

摘要

Application-to-Application authentication features using a second communication channel for out-of-band authentication separate from a communication channel of a request from a client to a server. Authentication information is associated with a component of the system such as the request or the client application, while being collected independent of interaction with the client application initiating the request. Implementations provide improved security over existing solutions using inband or other means of collecting authentication information.
