METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SECURE COMMUNICATION USING HASH-BASED MESSAGE AUTHENTICATION CODES

摘要

A system and method for secure communication using hash-based message authentication codes is provided. A first hash-based message authentication code is generated from a shared secret and a first counter value stored in storage of a computing device. A second hash-based message authentication code is generated from such shared secret and a second counter value. An encryption key is derived from a function of the first hash-based message authentication code and the second hash-based message authentication code. A message is encrypted using the encryption key, and communicated via a network interface of the computing device.
