  2. Handshake (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshake_(computing)

    In telecommunications, a handshake is an automated process of negotiation between two participants (example "Alice and Bob") through the exchange of information that establishes the protocols of a communication link at the start of the communication, before full communication begins. [1]

  3. Mutual authentication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_authentication

    Mutual authentication or two-way authentication (not to be confused with two-factor authentication) refers to two parties authenticating each other at the same time in an authentication protocol. It is a default mode of authentication in some protocols ( IKE , SSH ) and optional in others ( TLS ).

  4. Password Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_authentication...

    PAP authentication is only done at the time of the initial link establishment, and verifies the identity of the client using a two-way handshake. Client sends username and password. This is sent repeatedly until a response is received from the server. Server sends authentication-ack (if credentials are OK) or authentication-nak (otherwise) [2]

  5. WebSocket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket

    The client sends an HTTP request (method GET, version ≥ 1.1) and the server returns an HTTP response with status code 101 (Switching Protocols) on success.This means a WebSocket server can use the same port as HTTP (80) and HTTPS (443) because the handshake is compatible with HTTP.

  6. Transmission Control Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol

    It is also possible to terminate the connection by a 3-way handshake, when host A sends a FIN and host B replies with a FIN & ACK (combining two steps into one) and host A replies with an ACK. [33] Some operating systems, such as Linux and HP-UX, [citation needed] implement a half-duplex close sequence. If the host actively closes a connection ...

  7. Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Challenge-Handshake...

    CHAP is an authentication scheme originally used by Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) servers to validate the identity of remote clients. CHAP periodically verifies the identity of the client by using a three-way handshake. This happens at the time of establishing the initial link (LCP), and may happen again at any time afterwards.

  8. Wi-Fi Protected Access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access

    This protocol ensures robust encryption and data integrity, using different Initialization Vectors (IVs) for encryption and authentication purposes. [12] The 4-way handshake involves: The AP sending a random number (ANonce) to the client. The client responding with its random number (SNonce).

  9. Authentication protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authentication_protocol

    Protocols are used mainly by Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) servers to validate the identity of remote clients before granting them access to server data. Most of them use a password as the cornerstone of the authentication. In most cases, the password has to be shared between the communicating entities in advance. [5] PAP 2-way handshake scheme
