摘要:
Both a management server and a validation server are installed. Both a terminal and a terminal register setting information which is usable in an encrypted communication in the management server. When carrying out the encrypted communication, the management server searches the registered setting information for coincident setting information. The management server generates keys for the encrypted communications which can be used by the terminals, and delivers these generated keys in combination with the coincident setting information. The management server authenticates both the terminals in conjunction with the validation server. Since the terminals trust such results that the management server has authenticated the terminals respectively, these terminals need not authenticate the respective communication counter terminals.
摘要:
In an encryption communication using VPN technologies, a load on a VPN system becomes large if the number of communication terminals increases. When an external terminal accesses via an internal terminal an application server, processes become complicated because it is necessary to perform authentication at VPN and authentication at the application server. A management server is provided for managing external terminals, internal terminals and application servers. The management server authenticates each communication terminal and operates to establish an encryption communication path between communication terminals. Authentication of each terminal by the management server relies upon a validation server. When the external terminal performs encryption communication with the application server via the internal terminal, two encryption communication paths are established and used between the external terminal and internal terminal and between the internal terminal and application server.

A validation authority for certificates searches for and verifies paths and certificate revocation lists periodically, and classifies the paths into valid paths and invalid paths in accordance with the results of the validations, so as to register the paths in databases beforehand. Besides, in a case where a request for authenticating the validity of a certificate has been received from an end entity, the validation authority judges the validity of the public key certificate by checking in which of the valid-path database and the invalid-path database a path corresponding to the request is registered. On the other hand, in a case where the path corresponding to the validity authentication request is not registered in either of the databases, the validity of the public key certificate is authenticated by performing path search and validation anew.

To solve problems in that a load on a VPN device is large in a case where the number of terminal devices increases in encrypted communication using a VPN technique, and that only communication between the terminal device and the VPN device is encrypted, thus disabling end-to-end encrypted communication, a communication system is provided, including: a terminal device; a plurality of blades; and a management server that manages the blades, in which: the management server selects a blade, authenticates the terminal device and the selected blade, and mediates encrypted communication path establishment between the terminal device and the selected blade; the terminal device and the blade perform encrypted communication without the mediation of the management server; and the management server requests a validation server to authenticate each terminal.
摘要:
An encrypted communication system is provided, in which an encryption key for use in encrypted communication and settings information for the encrypted communication are distributed to each of a plurality of communication devices performing encrypted communication within a group, and in which traffic generated by distributing the encryption key and the like can be reduced. In the encrypted communication system according to the present invention, information including a key for use in the intra-group encrypted communication or a seed which generates the key is distributed to the communication devices belonging to the group that are participating (e.g., logged in) in the intra-group encrypted communication.
摘要:
When a cryptographic communicating part 208 of the communication support server 20 exchanges information with the information processing units 14, if the term of validity of a first key stored in a cryptographic key storing part 200 and corresponding to the identification information of the information processing unit 14 does not expire, the cryptographic communicating part 208 performs the cryptographic communication with the information processing unit 14 using the first key, without performing a process of authenticating the information processing units 14. When the term of validity of the first key expires or the first key corresponding to the identification information of the information processing units 14 is not stored, the key sharing part 202 shares the first key with the information processing units 14, and the cryptographic communicating part 208 performs the cryptographic communication with the information processing units 14 using a newly shared first key.
摘要:
A server device that represents a plurality of service provision servers implements authentication and a SIP message exchange with respect to a SIP server as a representative, and notifies a service provision server of client communication information that is acquired by the SIP message exchange. The service provision server communicates with a client on the basis of the client communication information that is notified from the representative server.
摘要:
Cryptographic communication between communication terminals can be realized even when a plurality of cryptographic algorithms are present, and secure cryptographic communication for a longer time is realized without increasing a processing overhead at each of the communication terminals. A key management server manages cryptographic algorithms that can be used by each of the communication terminal, and searches for a cryptographic algorithm common to the communication terminals, and notifies each of the communication terminals of the cryptographic algorithm found by the search together with plural key generation informations, each piece containing a key to be used in the cryptographic algorithm or a key type for generating the key. Each of the communication terminals sequentially switches the plural key generation informations notified from the key management server, and performs the cryptographic communication with a communication counterpart in accordance with the cryptographic algorithm notified from the key management server.
