US Patent 10356068 Security key generator module for security sensitive applications

In one embodiment, a system includes a sender host having a processing circuit and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processing circuit. The logic is configured to cause the processing circuit to select a plurality of base parameters commonly identifiable by a sender host and a receiver host and determine at least one external event that triggers a change in selection of the plurality of base parameters to a plurality of changed parameters. The logic also causes the processing circuit to generate a unique security key using the plurality of base parameters in response to a determination that the at least one external event has not occurred, generate the unique security key using the plurality of changed parameters in response to a determination that the at least one external event has occurred, and send, by the sender host, a message including the unique security key to the receiver host.
