Abstract
For securely transferring session information, code creates a session transfer packet in response to receiving a selected option associated with running a server application using a second browser. The session transfer packet has a claim number and a session transfer key. Code activates an authentication application on an electronic device in response to receiving the selected option. In addition, code communicates a claim packet to the electronic device in response to the selected option. The claim packet has the claim number and a server address. The code also receives the claim number from the authentication application. The code further communicates the session transfer packet to the authentication application in response to receiving the claim number. In addition the code communicates a cookie header to the second browser in response to receiving the session transfer key from the second browser.
