Abstract
A method is provided for establishing a secure communication session in a communication system. The method includes providing a handshake layer functional block and providing a record layer functional block separate from the handshake layer functional block. Functionality of the record layer functional block is not duplicated in the handshake layer functional block. The record layer functional block of a first communication peer generates an ephemeral key pair. A public key of the ephemeral key pair is transmitted to the handshake layer functional block of a second communication peer via the handshake layer functional block of the first communication peer. A session key is generated from the public key of the second communication peer and a private key of the first communication peer. Messages communicated between the first communication peer and the second communication peer are protected using the session key.
