Patent attributes
In an encrypted communication system that includes a first and a second device, the first device encrypts a 1st key using a public key of the second device to generate 1st encrypted data, which is then transmitted to the second device, receives 2nd encrypted data from the second device, which is then decrypted using a secret key of the first device to obtain a 2nd key, and generates, based on the 1st and 2nd keys, a 1st encryption key for use in communication with the second device. The second device encrypts a 3rd key using a public key of the first device to generate the 2nd encrypted data, which is then transmitted to the first device, receives the 1st encrypted data, which is then decrypted using a secret key of the second device to obtain a 4th key, and generates, based on the 3rd and 4th keys, a 2nd encryption key for use in communication with the first device. The first and second devices perform encrypted communication using the 1st and 2nd encryption keys.
