A mobile terminal for securely communicating with a network includes a user identity module (UIM). The UIM is in operable communication with a user equipment module and includes a password provisioning module (PPM), a password generating module and a response generation module (RGM). The user equipment module includes a client application. The PPM is configured to store a password. The password generating module is in operable communication with the PPM and configured to generate the password. The RGM is in operable communication with both the client application and the PPM. The RGM is configured to generate an authentication response from the password in response to a request from the client application.
