Abstract

See full text

In one or more embodiments, a network provider can receive a request to access a public network via a wireless network implemented via one or more wireless access points. The network provider can receive, via an unsecured wireless communication from a mobile device utilizing the wireless network and via a hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS), an encryption key usable to secure wireless communications from the mobile device utilizing the wireless network. The encryption key can be encrypted via a public encryption key, received from the network provider or previously stored by the mobile device, associated with the network provider. The network provider can decrypt the encryption key and can provide the encryption key to a wireless access point implementing the wireless network and communicating with the mobile device. The wireless access point and the mobile device can communicate in a secure fashion based on the encryption key.
