Authenticated session establishment

摘要

Methods, devices, and machine-readable media are provided to provide secure communications between entities. As provided in this disclosure, this may include receiving a request to begin a new communication session, determining one or more desired parameters of the session, and determining whether the desired parameters of the message match proposed parameters provided by the entity requesting the new communication session. When the one or more proposed parameters match the one or more desired parameters, a secure communication session is established between the entities.

主权项

1. A method for initiating communications comprising:
receiving a message providing a request to begin a secure communication session; determining a first set of proposed parameters referenced in the message; determining one or more available parameters of the sender of the message; determining one or more prioritized parameters based at least in part upon the one or more available parameters of the sender of the message; determining whether the first set of proposed parameters of the message match the one or more prioritized parameters; when the first set of proposed parameters of the message match the one or more prioritized parameters, establishing the secure communication session using a public key and private key combination; and when the first set of proposed parameters of the message does not match the one or more prioritized parameters, sending a reconfigure message to the sender requesting the sender to send a second message comprising a second set of proposed parameters different from the first set of proposed parameters, wherein the reconfigure message is sent to prevent an intervening electronic device from causing the sender to include the first set of proposed parameters in the message.
