METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SECURE AND AUTHORIZED COMMUNICATION BETWEEN A VEHICLE AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES OR KEY FOBS
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a wireless communication device;
a vehicle, comprising;
a central module configured to establish a wireless connection with the wireless communication device to initiate a current communication session, wherein the wireless communication device communicates a request message when the wireless connection is established with the central module, wherein the request message requests temporary security information; and
a key provisioning server, communicatively coupled to the wireless communication device and the central module, wherein the key provisioning server is configured to provide, in response to the request message, the temporary security information to the wireless communication device and the central module,wherein the temporary security information is used to encrypt communications between the wireless communication device and the central module.

Abstract
A system is provided that includes a wireless communication device (or end device), a vehicle having a central module, and a key provisioning server. The key provisioning server is communicatively coupled to the wireless communication device and the central module via wireless connections. The central module can establish a wireless connection with the wireless communication device to initiate a current communication session. When the wireless connection is established with the central module, the wireless communication device communicates a request message to request temporary security information (e.g., public key and/or a digital certificate). The key provisioning server can then provide, in response to the request message, the temporary security information to the wireless communication device and/or the central module. The temporary security information can then be used to encrypt communications between the wireless communication device and the central module.
