  Symmetric key algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Symmetric-key algorithms are a class of algorithms for cryptography that use trivially related cryptographic keys for both decryption and encryption.
The encryption key is trivially related to the decryption key, in that they may be identical or there is a simple transform to go between the two keys.
Since keys are subject to discovery by a cryptographic adversary, they need to be changed often and kept secure during distribution and in service.

 Patent 5081678: Method for utilizing an encrypted key as a key identifier in a data packet in a computer network
The master key is used according to the present invention, to encrypt the shared key under the master key of each of the two nodes.
Once the shared key is determined, it is then used to either decrypt the remainder of the data packet as it is received or verify the integrity of the received data packet.
Another method of negotiating a shared key is to utilize the key distribution center 30 to establish the initial contact between node A 11 and node B 12.

This is where the Key Distribution Center is used and it consists of a service which runs on all Windows 2000 domain controllers and generates the shared key for the client and server and sends it in an encrypted form to the client.
The KDC responds to the client's request to talk to a server by sending both copies of the session key to the client (one for the client, one for the server but it is the same key just packaged differently).
The server's copy of the session key is embedded, along with authorization data for the client, in a data structure called a session ticket.

 The Foundations of Distributed Message-Level Security   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Shared key encryption is the key technology to achieve the security principle of message confidentiality.
Shared key encryption utilizes public key encryption to manage distribution of the shared key securely to the recipient.
Shared key algorithms are fast and can handle infinitely large messages; however, both ends of the communication need access to the same key, and you need to get it to your recipient securely.

 Shared Key pilot
The decision to proceed with a pilot of infrastructure for shared keys, involving a number of 'live' agency applications (Component 5) is the only 'on the ground' product (as opposed to reports, standards etc) expected from the II during its expected (2 year) lifetime.
The functionality of the proposed Key Hub has not been specified in any detail, but it is clear that it is intended to form the basis of a long term infrastructure for a much wider application - ie: it is not a 'throw away' pilot.
A 'report-back' on the development of plans for a Shared Key Pilot is proposed in October 2004.

 Encryption/Decryption Layer for JavaGroups
The other reason to choose symmetric key for encryption and decryption the information is if we choose the asymmetric key and there are 5 member in a groups, each member should have his own private key to decrypt and 4 other’s public key to encrypt the message.
Therefore, we use the symmetric key for encryption and decryption message and asymmetric key systems is used for encrypt and decrypt the shared key for key distribution.
Key distribution server is in charge of distributing the shared key to every member.

While it is expected that usage of public key mechanisms will increase substantially in the near future, many sites which want to use IP Security as a tunnelling mechanism for remote access over the Internet may not be able or willing to convert their existing systems to use public key technology right away.
When pre-shared key authentication is being used, HASH_R is derived from a combination of the pre-shared key and the nonces, ISAKMP cookies, and publicly-exchanged Diffie-Hellman values of both the initiator and responder, plus the responder's identity.
Derivation of the Pre-Shared Key The pre-shared key is derived by using the HMAC algorithm [RFC-2104] in conjunction with the SHA-1 hash algorithm, with the passphrase used as the key and the plaintext username as the "message".

 NetStumbler.org WiFi Forums - Shared Key Authentication in Linux ???
With shared key authentication, the AP sends the client device a challenge text packet that the client must then encrypt with the correct WEP key and return to the AP.
Shared key authentication is not considered secure, because a hacker who detects both the clear-text challenge and the same challenge encrypted with a WEP key can decipher the WEP key.
Shared Authenticate has a serious flaw, in that it is a simple challenge/response protocol.

The standard explanations like "with public key cryptography, two keys are generated, a public key and a private key; the private key the individual keeps to himself, and the public key is shared with everyone" doesn't really convey the power behind this technology.
Shared public key cryptography could be compared to making duplicate keys and sharing them with others.
This key is NOT part of a public key private key pair; it both encrypts and decrypts (locks and unlocks) the message.

In the case where the responder has multiple public keys, a hash of the certificate the initiator is using to encrypt the ancillary information is passed as part of the third message.
In this mode, the nonce is still encrypted using the public key of the peer, however the peer's identity (and the certificate if it is sent) is encrypted using the negotiated symmetric encryption algorithm (from the SA payload) with a key derived from the nonce.
For situations where the amount of keying material desired is greater than that supplied by the prf, KEYMAT is expanded by feeding the results of the prf back into itself and concatenating results until the required keying material has been reached.

 ISS X-Force Database: sonicwall-ike-shared-keys(6304): SonicWALL IKE pre-shared key is 48 bytes instead of 128 bytes
The IKE pre-shared key is designed to be 128 bytes in length.
CAN-2001-0376: SonicWALL Tele2 and SOHO firewalls with 6.0.0.0 firmware using IPSEC with IKE pre-shared keys do not allow for the use of full 128 byte IKE pre-shared keys, which is the intended design of the IKE pre-shared key, and only support 48 byte keys.
This allows a remote attacker to brute force attack the pre-shared keys with significantly less resources than if the full 128 byte IKE pre-shared keys were used.

 CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) (Linktionary term)
A challenge/response is a security mechanism for verifying the identity of a person or process without revealing a secret password that is shared by the two entities.
An important concept related to CHAP is that the client must prove to the server that it knows a shared secret without actually revealing the secret (sending the secret across the wire could reveal it to an eavesdropper).
The challenge requires that an entity prove possession of a shared key or one of the key pairs in a public key scheme.

 MySQL Reference Manual :: 7.4.6.1 Shared Key Cache Access
As a result, a request for an index block not present in any key cache buffer blocks access by other threads while a buffer is being updated to contain the requested index block.
Multiple threads can initiate requests that result in cache block replacements, as long as they do not interfere with each other (that is, as long as they need different index blocks, and thus cause different cache blocks to be replaced).
Shared access to the key cache allows the server to improve throughput significantly.
