Abstract
A method, computer readable medium, and apparatus for secure application delivery includes forming at a traffic management device a session identifier in response to a first request from a client device for access to a network application. The session identifier is encrypted for sending to the client device using a session variable formed by hashing at least one physical identifier associated uniquely with the client device in response to the first request. In a second request from the client device to access the network application, the encrypted session identifier is decrypted using an updated value of the session variable. The access to the network application is provided when the decrypted session identifier matches the formed session identifier, and denied when the decrypted session identifier does not match the formed session identifier.
