Abstract
In an embodiment, a method for secure messaging integration with message apps includes identifying a trigger event within a default messaging channel established between a message aggregator and a messaging application executing at a client device. In response to the trigger event, the method sends to the client device over the default messaging channel, access data usable to access a secure channel established between the message aggregator and the client device. The access data is presented within the messaging application and communications over the secure channel are not visible to the default messaging channel.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- establishing a default messaging channel between a message aggregator and a message application executing at a client device;
- establishing a secure channel between the message aggregator and the client device, and wherein the default messaging channel is maintained to revert back to the default messaging channel when the secure channel is closed;
- and
- sending to the client device over the default messaging channel, access data usable to access the secure channel established between the message aggregator and the client device, wherein the access data is presented within the messaging application and communications over the secure channel are not visible to the default messaging channel.
A system comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- establish a default messaging channel between a message aggregator and a message application executing at a client device;
- establish a secure channel between the message aggregator and the client device, and wherein the default messaging channel is maintained to revert back to the default messaging channel when the secure channel is closed;
- and
- send to the client device over the default messaging channel, access data usable to access the secure channel established between the message aggregator and the client device, wherein the access data is presented within the messaging service specific application and communications over the secure channel are not visible to the default messaging channel;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.
A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium and comprising computer instructions for:
- establishing a default messaging channel between a message aggregator and a message application executing at a client device;
- establishing a secure channel between the message aggregator and the client device, and wherein the default messaging channel is maintained to revert back to the default messaging channel when the secure channel is closed;
- and
- sending to the client device over the default messaging channel, access data usable to access the secure channel established between the message aggregator and the client device, wherein the access data is presented within the messaging service specific application and communications over the secure channel are not visible to the default messaging channel.
