Patent 10511591 was granted and assigned to Amazon on December, 2019 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Two parties to a communication establish public and private keys through the use of implicit certificates. Each party establishes a new static key pair, and determines a difference between the new static key pair and the previously established keys. The differences are exchanged and used to determine new public static keys. Each party generates an ephemeral key pair from the static key pair, and a shared secret is derived from a combination of the ephemeral keys and the new static keys.
