    Abstract: To establish a sign on session among single sign on (SSO)-enabled applications, a user can be prompted by an application for an access code. An access interval key can be generated using a key derivative function based on the access code. The access interval key can be considered a session key, and it can be used during a valid SSO session to decrypt a master key stored in a shared memory. In turn, the master key can be used to encrypt and decrypt the contents of the shared memory. To securely distribute the access interval key among the SSO-enabled applications during a current session, individual SSO-enabled applications can each store a public key in the shared memory. The access interval key can then be encrypted, respectively, by the public keys of the SSO-enabled applications and stored in the shared memory to be retrieved securely by the SSO-enabled applications.

    Abstract: To extend a sign on session among applications, an inter-application workflow request can be initiated from a first to a second application. The workflow request can identify one or more memory locations in a shared memory for secure data transfer between the applications. The first application can then monitor the memory locations for the presence of a public key stored in shared memory by the second application in response to the workflow request. Once the public key is present in the shared memory, the first application can retrieve and use it to encrypt an access interval key. The encrypted access interval key can then be stored in the shared memory for retrieval by the second application. The access interval key is associated with a sign on session of the first application, and the second application can retrieve and decrypt it to extend the sign on session to the second application.
