Abstract
Described are techniques for using a first secure communication connection between a first component and a second component to establish a second communication connection as another secure communication connection between the components. The first secure communication connection may be used to exchange fingerprints for digital certificates of the two components. The second communication may be used to exchange digital certificates of the two components. Each of the components may determine whether the received fingerprint of the other component matches a calculated fingerprint of the received certificate for the other component, and if so, the received certificate for the other component may be stored in a data store of said each component.
