Abstract

In one embodiment, a method comprises: generating and maintaining, by a network device in a secure peer-to-peer data network, a secure private key and a corresponding secure public key; establishing, by the network device, a two-way trusted relationship with a second network device in the secure peer-to-peer data network; generating by the network device a temporal key, and encrypting a data packet payload using the temporal key into an encrypted payload; encrypting, by the network device, the temporal key into an encrypted temporal key using a second secure public key of the second network device; and generating and outputting a secure data packet comprising the encrypted temporal key and the encrypted payload, enabling a receiving network device to verify the secure data packet is not a copy based on a determined absence of a prior prescribed hash of at least a portion of the encrypted temporal key.
