DTCP CERTIFICATE AUTHENTICATION OVER TLS PROTOCOL

摘要

Authenticating devices utilizing Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to facilitate exchange of authentication information or other data to permit or otherwise enable access to services requiring authentication credentials, certificates, tokens or other information. The authentication may utilize Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) certificates, Diffie-Hellman (DH) parameters or other information available to the authenticating devices, optionally without requiring device requesting authentication to obtain an X.509 certificate.

1. A method of authenticating a first device and a second device utilizing Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol comprising:
retrieving a first Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) certificate included in a first SupplementalData message transmitted from the first device to the second device; verifying the first DTCP certificate; aborting authenticating the first device if the first DTCP certificate is unverified; and authenticating the first device if the first DTCP certificate is verified.
