Abstract
Embodiments are directed to a computer-implemented method and system for generating a transport key. A method can include generating, using a processor, a key agreement pair comprising a public agreement key and a private agreement key in a second element. Thereafter, generating, using the processor, a transport key based on the public agreement key in a first element. Then sending, using the processor, an information blob to the second element. Finally, independently generating, using the processor, the transport key in the second element using the information blob and the private agreement key. The transport key can thereafter be used to send information securely between the first and second elements.
