Patent attributes
Methods, terminal and a data center gateway are provided for allowing efficient debugging and troubleshooting of data session encrypted with Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) encryption techniques such as for example the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol version 1.3. Embodiments of the invention allow the user terminal to authorize a data center gateway to persistently store one or more encryption keys associated with the data session for use to access the recorded data session and troubleshooting it after the session ended, when faults are detected. When a fault is detected, the user terminal provides authorization to the gateway to persistently store the data session along with one or more encryption key(s). With this, the gateway allows for the data session to be later decrypted and faults to be investigated despite the data session being encrypted with PFS techniques.
