Title: Systems and methods for authentication and key agreement in a smart grid

Abstract

Systems and methods for authentication and key agreement are provided and can utilize a scheme that uses dynamic key generation to achieve replay-attack resistance in zero round trip time (0-RTT). The hash-chain concept can be integrated with the Diffie-Hellman (DH) key exchange scheme. With this scheme, a device can securely determine the new shared key immediately (i.e., in 0-RTT) and start using it.
