摘要:
In some embodiments, each client device in the network has a private key and a public key. For two client devices to securely exchange information, each computes a shared secret based on its own private key and the other's public key. The client devices use the shared secret to generate a shared secret key pair. The shared secret public key is used as a key by each client device to store data in a public key-value data store to share with the other client device. The shared data is signed using the shared secret key pair. The shared data may also be encrypted using the shared secret key pair. Each client device uses the shared secret public key to retrieve the data from the public key-value data store. Each client device uses the shared secret key pair to verify and decrypt the shared data.
