A secure communications method includes: receiving, by a first network device, a second ephemeral public key of a second network device; determining, by the first network device, an ephemeral session key based on a first shared key, a first ephemeral secret key of the first network device, and the second ephemeral public key, where the first shared key is shared between the first network device and the second network device; and performing, by the first network device, secure communication with the second network device based on the ephemeral session key.

Secure communications method and apparatus

A Certification Authority (CA) server for issuing digital certificates generates a first digital certificate associated with a first public key of the device and calculates an update factor for the first private key. Based on the first public key, the calculated update factor, and a predefined public system parameter, the CA server calculates a second public key for a determined time period for the device. The CA server generates a second digital certificate valid at the determined time period and associated with the second public key and sends the second digital certificate to the device. A device may calculate an update factor for a stored first private key, calculates a second private key based on the calculated update factor and the first private key, receives from the CA server a second digital certificate associated with a second public key, and validates the device based on the second digital certificate.
