Abstract:
Systems and methods to rotate security assets used for secure communication are described. The system retrieves security assets from a security asset repository, the security assets including a first version of the certificate and a second version of the certificate. Further, the system receives, over a network, a third certificate, at a client machine, the third certificate being received from the first remote server machine of the plurality of remote server machines. Further, the system identifies, at the client machine, whether a first remote server machine associated with the first subject name is trusted by identifying whether the third certificate matches any one of the first version of the certificate and the second version of the certificate. Finally, the system establishes a secure communication session with the first remote server machine based on identifying that the first remote server is trusted.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented system and method for pool-based identity generation and use for service access is disclosed. The method in an example embodiment includes seeding an identity generator with a private key; retrieving independently verifiable data corresponding to a service consumer; using the independently verifiable data to create signed assertions corresponding to the service consumer; generating a non-portable identity document associated with the service consumer, the identity document including the signed assertions; signing the identity document with the private key; and conveying the signed identity document to the service consumer via a secure link.
