Abstract
A device implementing a trusted device establishment system includes at least one processor configured to receive, via a direct wireless connection and from an other device, a public key associated with the other device and an indication of a data item previously provided to the other device via an out-of-band channel. The at least one processor is further configured to verify that the indication of the data item corresponds to the data item previously provided to the other device, and store, in a secure memory region, the public key in association with an identifier corresponding to the other device when the indication of the data item is verified. The at least one processor is further configured to authorize the public key to access a secure device based at least in part on the public key being stored in the secure memory region.
