Abstract

A login session server establishes a communications session between an application executing on a device and a service provided by a web services gateway. A temporary login session socket is established and a token is sent to the device. The temporary login session socket may be used to verify a service provided by the web services gateway.

Claims

1. A method performed by a login session server, comprising:

receiving, by the login session server, a login request associated with a device;

establishing, by the login session server, a temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device in response to the login request;

sending, by the login session server, a token to the device via the temporary bidirectional secure socket, the token indicating that an application executed by the device is verified to access a service;

determining, by the login session server, a closure of the temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device after the sending of the token; and

sending, by the login session server, the token to a web services gateway in response to the closure of the temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device, the token indicating the application executed by the device is verified to access the service provided by the web services gateway.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising associating the service to the web services gateway.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving a user identification associated with the service.

4. The method of claim 3, further comprising verifying the user identification associated with the service.

5. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving a password associated with the service.

6. The method of claim 5, further comprising verifying the password associated with the service.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising sending a password to the web services gateway that accompanies the token.

9. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise associating the service to the web services gateway.

10. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise receiving a user identification associated with the service.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise verifying the user identification associated with the service.

12. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise receiving a password associated with the service.

13. The system of claim 12, wherein the operations further comprise verifying the password associated with the service.

14. The system of claim 1, wherein the operations further comprise sending a password to the web services gateway that accompanies the token.

8. A system, comprising:

a hardware processor; and

a memory device, the memory device storing instructions, the instructions when executed causing the hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising;

receiving a login request associated with a device;

establishing a temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device in response to the login request;

sending a token to the device via the temporary bidirectional secure socket, the token indicating that an application executed by the device is verified to access a web service;

establishing a closure of the temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device after the token is sent; and

sending the token to a web services gateway after the closure, the token indicating the application executed by the device is verified to access the web service provided by the web services gateway.

15. A memory device storing instructions that when executed cause a hardware processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:

receiving a login request associated with a device;

establishing a temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device in response to the login request;

sending a token to the device via the temporary bidirectional secure socket, the token indicating that an application executed by the device is verified to access a web service;

establishing a closure of the temporary bidirectional secure socket with the device after the token is sent; and

sending the token to a web services gateway after the closure, the token indicating the application executed by the device is verified to access the web service provided by the web services gateway.

16. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise associating the service to the web services gateway.

17. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise receiving a user identification associated with the service.

18. The memory device of claim 17, wherein the operations further comprise verifying the user identification associated with the service.

19. The memory device of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise receiving a password associated with the service.

20. The memory device of claim 19, wherein the operations further comprise verifying the password associated with the service.
