Abstract:
Methods and devices for establishing trust on first use for close proximity communications are disclosed. An example method includes receiving a public key from a device via a close proximity communications connection, obtaining, via a user interface, an indication that the device is trusted, and storing at least one of the public key or an identifier for the device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for secure communications. In some aspects, one or more values used to generate an encryption key used to encrypt a packet are stored in a header of the packet. The packet is transmitted with the encrypted data portion in a communication. In some aspects, one or more values used to generate an encryption key are received. The encryption key is regenerated using the one or more values.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented authenticated encryption method for converting a plaintext message into a ciphertext message. The method includes dividing the plaintext message into at least two working blocks, each working block having a mathematical relationship to the plaintext message. For each working block, a working block ciphertext is computed as a function of such working block, a deterministic working block initialization vector, and a deterministic working block encryption key. For each working block, a message authentication tag is computed as a function of a deterministic working block message authentication key and at least one of (a) the working block ciphertext computed for such working block and an indication corresponding to the mathematical relationship of such working block to the plaintext message and (b) such working block. The method further includes computing a global message authentication tag as a function of the message authentication tag computed for each working block and a global message authentication key. The ciphertext message comprises the working block ciphertext computed for each working block and the global message authentication tag.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for secure communications. In some aspects, a method of signalling an interception time period is described. At least one keying information used by a KMF to regenerate a key is stored. A start_interception message is signaled from an ADMF to a CSCF. A halt_message is signaled from the ADMF to the CSCF.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for secure communications are provided. In some aspects, a method of signalling an interception time period is described. At least one keying information used by a key management service (KMS) to regenerate a key is stored. A start_interception message is signaled from an administration function (ADMF) to a call session control function (CSCF). A halt_message is signaled from the ADMF to the CSCF.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for secure communications. In some aspects, an initiator KMS receives, from an initiator UE, one or more values used in generation of an encryption key, which includes obtaining at least one value associated with a RANDRi. The initiator KMS sends the at least one value associated with the RANDRi to a responder KMS. The responder KMS generates the encryption key using the one or more values.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer programs for producing hash values are disclosed. A prefix-free value is obtained based on input data. The prefix-free value can be based on an implicit certificate, a message to be signed, a message to be verified, or other suitable information. A hash value is obtained by applying a hash function to the prefix-free value. The hash value is used in a cryptographic scheme. In some instances, a public key or a private key is generated based on the hash value. In some instances, a digital signature is generated based on the hash value, or a digital signature is verified based on the hash value, as appropriate.
Abstract:
There is provided a method for secure communications. The method comprises receiving a transmission comprising a signature of a broadcast message at a communication device, and verifying the signature using a certificate.
