Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020008131A1] The invention relates to a method for obtaining a sequence of L cryptographic keys k1,m . ki,m, ki+1,m, kL,m in which, before an instant t1,m, a group of receivers establishes (140) a first connection to a key server and receives, during said first connection, the information required to obtain the key k1,m, and, subsequently, for each index i between 2 and L: the group of receivers obtains (150) the subsequent key ki,m by running a key derivation algorithm initialised by means of the previous key ki-1,m and without using any information other than that received during the first connection; and the average run-time TCi,m of the key derivation algorithm by the group of receivers in order to obtain the key ki,m is higher than 0,2Vi-1,m., where V1-i,m is the duration of the validity interval of the previous key ki-1,m.
