Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 13:
14. An apparatus, comprising:
an apparatus-processor; and
a vehicular communication component including a processor and a memory, wherein, in response to determining the vehicular communication component is within a particular proximity to an external communication component, the vehicular communication component coupled to the apparatus-processor performs functions to:
receive an external public key from the external communication component;
encrypt data using the external public key, wherein the encrypted data comprises:
a vehicular digital signature that indicates an identity of the vehicular communication component; and
a request for performance of a service;

wherein the vehicular digital signature prevents the vehicular communication component from subsequently denying that the vehicular communication component requested the performance of the service; and
generate a vehicular certificate by:
encrypting a public vehicular identification and a private vehicular identification associated with the vehicular communication component, resulting in an encrypted value; and
encrypting the encrypted value and a vehicular private key; and

provide the encrypted data and the vehicular certificate to the external communication component.
