Abstract

Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture may be implemented, in whole or in part, to authenticate a communications device. In an embodiment, the method may include accessing a prepackaged group of computer instructions and invoking an authentication operation of the communications device. The method may additionally include determining availability of a cellular communications channel to communicate with a client server and initiating a browser session to pass hardware-specific parameters to and from the client server. The method may further include receiving an outcome of the authentication operation, in which invoking of the authentication operation and receiving the outcome of the authentication operation occur during a single exchange between a client application and the prepackaged group of computer instructions.
