Methods and apparatus for securely transmitting sensitive information to a remote device at the request of an application program are provided. The application porogam generates a request to a secure channel provider to make a transmission to a remote device. A first message is passed from the application program to the secure channel provider containing insertion point codes indicating locations within the first message where the sensitive information should be inserted. Sensitive information is obtained from a source outside of the application program and the sensitive information is inserted into the first message at the locations in the first message indicated by the insertion point codes to form a second message containing the sensitive information. The second message is encrypted and this encrypted message is transmitted to the remote device. The sensitive information is unaccessed by the application program during the execution of the method.

La présente invention concerne des procédés et un appareil destinés à transmettre en toute sécurité des informations secrètes à un dispositif distant à la demande d'un programme applicatif. Le programme applicatif génère une demande adressée à un fournisseur de canaux sécurisés pour effectuer une transmission vers un dispositif distant. Un premier message, envoyé du programme applicatif au fournisseur de canaux sécurisés, contient des codes de point d'insertion indiquant les emplacements au sein du premier message où les informations secrètes doivent être insérées. Les informations secrètes sont obtenues à partir d'une source extérieure au programme applicatif et elles sont insérées dans le premier message aux emplacements du premier message indiqués par les codes de point d'insertion de manière à former un deuxième message contenant les informations secrètes. Le second message est chiffré avant d'être transmis au dispositif distant. Le programme applicatif n'accède pas aux informations secrètes pendant l'exécution du procédé.
