Abstract:
Various examples are directed to systems and methods for exchanging encrypted information. A first computing device may select a first private key and generate a session key based at least in part on the first private key. The first computing device may receive from a second computing device a second public key and generate a first public key based at least in part on: the second public key, a shared secret integer, and the first private key. A second computing device may select a second private key and generate the second public key based at least in part on the second private key; a generator, a first group constant and the shared secret integer.
