A capability for secure communication of data from a source device to a destination device is presented. The source device has a device identifier associated therewith. The source device stores an encrypted version of the device identifier that is encrypted based on a master key of the destination device. The source device stores an encryption key. The source device communicates data to the destination device in a secure manner by encrypting the data using the encryption key and propagating the encrypted version of the device identifier and the encrypted data to the destination device. The destination device recovers the data sent by the source device by decrypting the encrypted version of the device identifier based on the master key to determine the device identifier, determining a decryption key based on the device identifier, and decrypting the encrypted data based on the decryption key to recover the data sent by the source device.
