Abstract
In one embodiment, a method comprises: generating and maintaining, by a replicator device in a secure peer-to-peer data network, a secure private key and secure public key; establishing a two-way trusted relationship with a second replicator device for a pairwise topology of two-way trusted replicator devices; establishing a two-way trusted relationship with a first endpoint device based on validating a secure attachment request using the secure private key, and obtaining a second secure public key of the first endpoint device; validating, using the second secure public key, a secure data packet from the first endpoint device and destined for the second endpoint device, and obtaining information for reaching the second endpoint device via the second replicator device; and securely signing the secure data packet, received from the first endpoint device and destined for the second endpoint device, into a secure forwarded packet for secure transmission to the second replicator device.
