Abstract: In an approach for securing data, a processor publishes a traditional public key in a traditional certificate and a PQC public key in a PQC certificate. A processor encrypts data with a hybrid shared secret, the hybrid shared secret generated with a key derivation function by using a traditional shared secret based on the traditional public key and a PQC shared secret based on the PQC public key. A processor decrypts the data with the hybrid shared secret based on a traditional private key and a PQC private key. A processor signs the data with a traditional signature followed by a PQC signature.

Abstract: A disc recliner mechanism for use in an automotive vehicle includes a plurality of pawls and a cam mounted between a guide plate and a tooth plate. Rotation of the cam moves the pawls between an extended position in which the pawls engage the tooth plate to lock the disc recliner mechanism and a retracted position in which the pawls disengage the tooth plate to unlock the disc recliner mechanism and allow rotation between the guide plate and the tooth plate. A notch is disposed on an engagement surface of a cam lobe disposed on the cam for reducing friction when the cam lobe engages a cam follower disposed on the pawls. The tooth plate includes a circumferential outer lip with a concentric channel for retaining lubricant and reducing rotational friction between the tooth plate and the guide plate.

The post-quantum certificate acts as an extension of the first traditional certificate providing authentication and validation between a client and a server using post-quantum capable signing algorithms.

Abstract: Transport Layer Security (TLS) connection establishment between a client and a server for a new session is enabled using an ephemeral (temporary) key pair. In response to a request, the server generates a temporary certificate by signing an ephemeral public key using the server's private key. A certificate chain comprising at least the temporary certificate that includes the ephemeral public key, together with a server certificate, is output to the client by the server, which acts as a subordinate Certificate Authority. The client validates the certificates, generates a session key and outputs the session key wrapped by the ephemeral public key. To complete the connection establishment, the server applies the ephemeral private key to recover the session key derived at the client for the new session. The client and server thereafter use the session key to encrypt and decrypt data over the link. The ephemeral key pair is not reused.
