ABSTRACT:
Implementations of configuring security mechanisms utilizing a trust system are described. In one implementation, a request to communicate is received at a protected device. Before permission to communicate can be granted, a list of trusted devices is accessed. If information, such as an identity or a secret, associated with the device sending the request to communicate correlates to information found on the list of trusted devices, then communication can be allowed. Otherwise, communication between the device and the protected device can be denied.
