Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide techniques for generating a security key for use in authenticating a device. Embodiments divide a unique identifier into an ordered plurality of portions, wherein the unique identifier is associated with a first device. A plurality of values is retrieved from an indexable data structure by accessing the indexable data structure using each of the plurality of portions as an index, where the indexable data structure stores a plurality of unique values in a random or pseudorandom order. Embodiments process the retrieved plurality of values to generate a security key and use the security key in processing one or more data communication messages between the first device and a remote computing device.
