1. A method comprising:
- obtaining a predetermined static identification from a first device;
generating a first pairing identification from the static identification;
transmitting a pairing message containing the pairing identification to a second device;
receiving a second pairing identification generated by the second device from the static identification; and
initiating a secure communication between the first device and a second devices if the pairing message corresponds to the second pairing identification.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a secure communication is initiated between two devices by generating a pairing message from a predetermined static identification on the first device, transmitting the pairing message to the second device, generating a pairing identification from the static identification, and initiating a secure communication between the first and second device if the pairing message corresponds with the pairing identification.
