Abstract

A device may receive a request from a mobile device. The device may determine a port identifier for a port of the device. The port may correspond to whether the mobile device used a secure communication path to send the request. The device may determine a mobile device identifier for the mobile device. The device may add the mobile device identifier and the port identifier to the request. The device may send the request to an application device after adding the mobile device identifier and the port identifier to the request. The port identifier may be added to the request to enable the application device to determine whether the request was sent, by the mobile device, over the secure communication path.
