  • Patent number: 11968293
    Abstract: Context information of a handshake between a source entity and a target entity is obtained at a security proxy. The context information is transmitted from the security proxy to a key manager. The key manager maintains a first private key of the security proxy. A first handshake message is received from the key manager. The first handshake message is generated at least based on the context information and signed with the first private key. The first handshake message is then transmitted to the target entity.
