A method (FIG. 4 - 6 ) of providing authentication services for applications running on a client ( 401, 501 ) and requiring access to a network based server ( 407, 507 ) where the method uses lower layer keying to provide upper layer security. The method is practiced in corresponding client ( 401 - 403 ) and network entities ( 407 - 409 ). The method comprises establishing a network connection including an authentication with the network ( 421 ); obtaining, responsive to the authentication, a dynamic seed ( 423, 425 ); generating an application key corresponding to the dynamic seed ( 427, 429 ); and providing the application key to facilitate authenticating an application ( 515 - 523, 527 - 535 ). |
