What is a session key confirmation protocol?

A session key confirmation protocol is a cryptographic protocol used to verify the authenticity and integrity of a session key exchanged between two parties. It ensures that the session key has not been tampered with or intercepted by unauthorized entities during the key exchange process. The protocol typically involves the use of cryptographic techniques such as digital signatures or message authentication codes to provide assurance that the session key is valid and secure.
