ORBITGW's Secure Transfer Protocol
Overview
OSTP (ORBITGW's Secure Transfer Protocol) is a secure transport layer protocol designed for reliable and authenticated data transmission over TCP connections. It provides strong security guarantees using pre-shared keys and modern cryptographic algorithms.
Features
- Mutual Authentication: Both client and server authenticate each other using pre-shared keys
- Strong Encryption: Uses AES-256-GCM for authenticated encryption with integrity protection
- Replay Protection: Timestamp-based validation prevents replay attacks
- Forward Secrecy: Session keys are ephemeral and derived from random values
- Simple Protocol: Clean and straightforward handshake mechanism
