Abstract
A system includes a key repository and a network node. The key repository is configured to generate a private key and a public key of the network node, to communicate the private key and the public key to the network node, to verify whether the network node is authorized to operate on a network, to generate a first message indicating whether the network node is authorized to operate on the network, to encrypt the first message using the public key, and to communicate the encrypted first message to the network node. The network node is configured to decrypt the encrypted first message using the private key, to generate a second message based on the first message, to encrypt the second message using the private key, and to record the encrypted second message to a ledger.
