  2. Handshake (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    Handshaking is a technique of communication between two entities. However, within TCP/IP RFCs, the term "handshake" is most commonly used to reference the TCP three-way handshake. For example, the term "handshake" is not present in RFCs covering FTP or SMTP. One exception is Transport Layer Security, TLS, setup, FTP RFC 4217.

  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. 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.

  5. IEEE 802.11i-2004 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11i-2004

    When a device leaves the network, the GTK also needs to be updated. This is to prevent the device from receiving any more multicast or broadcast messages from the AP. To handle the updating, 802.11i defines a Group Key Handshake that consists of a two-way handshake: The AP sends the new GTK to each STA in the network.

  6. 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]

  7. Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol - Wikipedia

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

    In computing, the Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is an authentication protocol originally used by Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) to validate users. CHAP is also carried in other authentication protocols such as RADIUS and Diameter. Almost all network operating systems support PPP with CHAP, as do most network access servers.

  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
