Abstract:
Embodiments are provided for managing user credentials that enable access to secure websites. According to certain aspects, a browser device connects (230) to a website server that hosts a secure website. The browser device initiates (236) a credential request and enters (238) a discovery routine with a mobile device. After establishing (240) a secure channel with the mobile device, the browser device sends (248) an identification of the secure website to the mobile device, which identifies (250) corresponding user credentials and sends (252) the user credentials to the browser device. The browser device populates (254) a login page with the user credentials and accesses (256) the secure website.
