Abstract

A cryptographic communication system includes: a first cryptographic communication apparatus including a first tamper-resistant device configured to store a first key generation function and a first storage unit configured to store first individual information; and a second cryptographic communication apparatus including a second tamper-resistant device configured to store a second key generation function and a second storage unit configured to store second individual information. The first cryptographic communication apparatus generates a twelfth shared key using the first key generation function and the second individual information. The second cryptographic communication apparatus generates a twenty first shared key using the second key generation function and the first individual information.

Claims (26)

1. A cryptographic communication system comprising:

a first cryptographic communication apparatus including:

a first tamper-resistant device that stores a first key generation function, and

a first storage unit that stores a first individual information; and

a second cryptographic communication apparatus including:

a second tamper-resistant device that stores a second key generation function, and

a second storage unit that stores a second individual information, wherein

the first cryptographic communication apparatus generates a first shared key using the first key generation function and the second individual information, and

the second cryptographic communication apparatus generates a second shared key using the second key generation function and the first individual information.

2. The cryptographic communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the first tamper-resistant device stores the first shared key, and

the second tamper-resistant device stores the second shared key.

3. The cryptographic communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the first cryptographic communication apparatus generates a first authenticator using the first shared key and the first individual information and transmits the first authenticator to the second cryptographic communication apparatus,

the second cryptographic communication apparatus decrypts the first authenticator received from the first cryptographic communication apparatus using the second shared key, and

the second cryptographic communication apparatus performs authentication of the first cryptographic communication apparatus based on a result obtained by decrypting the first authenticator.

4. The cryptographic communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the second cryptographic communication apparatus generates a second authenticator using the second shared key and the second individual information and transmits the second authenticator to the first cryptographic communication apparatus,

the first cryptographic communication apparatus decrypts the second authenticator received from the second cryptographic communication apparatus using the first shared key, and

the first cryptographic communication apparatus performs authentication of the second cryptographic communication apparatus based on a result obtained by decrypting the second authenticator.

5. A cryptographic communication method by a first cryptographic communication apparatus and a second cryptographic communication apparatus, the first cryptographic communication apparatus that includes a first tamper-resistant device storing a first key generation function and a first storage unit storing a first individual information, the second cryptographic communication apparatus that includes a second tamper-resistant device storing a second key generation function and a second storage unit storing a second individual information, the cryptographic communication method comprising:

generating a first shared key using the first key generation function and the second individual information; and

generating a second shared key using the second key generation function and the first individual information.

6. A cryptographic communication apparatus comprising a first tamper-resistant device that stores a first key generation function and a first storage unit that stores a first individual information,

the cryptographic communication apparatus acquiring, from another cryptographic communication apparatus including a second tamper-resistant device that stores a second key generation function and a second storage unit that stores a second individual information, the second individual information, and

the cryptographic communication apparatus generating a shared key using the second individual information and the first key generation function.
