1. A method comprising:
- concatenating data for a plurality of fields of a requested web page into a string;
encrypting the string;
serving to a user node, the web page and a form corresponding to the requested web page that includes a blank field in each of the plurality of fields and the encrypted string; and
enabling at least the encrypted string to be locally decrypted and distributed into each respective blank field to allow interacting with the decrypted string at the user node.

Abstract
A system and method for conducting secure distributed network communications without using Secure Socket Layer. A frame having an embedded security applet is forwarded by the device to an external node on the network. The security applet prompts a user at the external node for login data. Once valid, login data is established, subsequent frames sent between the device and external node includes a blank form with an appended string of tagged and concatenated secure field values encrypted using a key derived from the login data.
