Disclosed is a method for execution by a computing device. The method involves establishing a communication channel for communicating with a client device using link-layer encryption, and attempting to authenticate the client device using authentication-layer encryption on top of the link-layer encryption. The method also involves receiving a command from the client device over the communication channel, and if the client device has been authenticated, executing the command. Notably, the link-layer encryption offers some degree of security because network traffic over the communication channel is encrypted, but does not offer adequate protection from all cyber attacks. However, the authentication-layer encryption adds an additional layer of security on top of the link-layer encryption, which can help to avoid or mitigate cyber attacks. In this way, it is possible to avoid or mitigate unauthorized users from having the computing device execute commands, because security is enhanced beyond the link-layer encryption.
