Methods and apparatus for encrypted communication

Filed:2020-03-13Pub:2023-05-23
Applicant:Arm IP Limited

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus comprising first interface circuitry to communicate with a first computing device and second interface circuitry to communicate with a second computing device. The first interface circuitry is configured to receive a handshake message from the first computing device. The second interface circuitry is configured to transmit the handshake message to the second computing device and to receive a handshake response message from the second computing device. The first interface circuitry is configured to transmit the handshake response message to the first computing device, whereby to establish a communication session between the first computing device and the second computing device. Apparatus comprises trusted execution environment circuitry to determine a cryptographic session key associated with said communication session, and use said session key to decrypt content of messages transmitted between the first and second computing devices via the apparatus, and analyse said decrypted content.

Methods and systems for verifying a source of a message or call

Filed:2018-09-27Pub:2022-06-21
Applicant:Arm IP Limited

Various implementations described herein are directed to providing time-dependent authentication of a sending device. A message to a designated receiver is prepared. A portion of at least one secret identifier value of the sending device is retrieved. A portion of time information is retrieved. An authentication field is produced using the portion of the at least one secret identifier value and the portion of the time information. The authentication field is attached to the message. The message is transmitted to the designated receiver.

MACHINE-TO-MACHINE COMMUNICATIONS

Filed:2019-10-31Pub:2021-05-06
Applicant:Arm IP Limited

A computer implemented method of initiating a communication session between a client device and a server using an authentication key exchange protocol comprising: including the steps of receiving at the server from the client device a first communication to initiate the communication session, the first communication comprising a first session resumption indicator to indicate whether or not session resumption is required to be used by the client device; , and establishing, at the server, a session resumption state for the client device based on or in response to a value of the first session resumption indicator.

Methods and resources for generating secure communications

Filed:2017-02-16Pub:2021-04-20
Applicant:ARM IP Limited

A method of generating wireless communications from a transmit-only device, the method comprising: generating, at the transmit-only device, a first current session key; generating, at the transmit-only device, operational data; generating, at the transmit-only device, crypto-data by performing a cryptographic operation on the operational data using the first current session key; transmitting, from the transmit-only device, a first identifier to enable a resource derive the first current session key; transmitting, from the transmit-only device, the crypto-data.
