Educational Information

Ephemeral keys are temporary cryptographic keys that:

  • Are generated for a single session or transaction
  • Automatically expire after a short time
  • Provide forward secrecy in encryption protocols
  • Are used in protocols like TLS, Signal, and others

This visualization simulates (but doesn't actually perform) key generation and expiration.
