Abstract

A secured communication channel is established between two or more information handling systems by defining attributes for encrypting information with physical inputs made at touch devices of the information handling systems. Inputting the physical gesture at a touch device of each information handling system allows evaluation of one or more attributes at each information handling system so that the shared secret of the physical gesture form the basis for encrypted communications. The touch device includes touch screens or touch pads and the attributes include gesture speed, plural distinct gesture touch points, movement of touch points relative to each other, or other attributes that are determinable from physical gesture inputs at each information handling system.
