What is a session key recovery protocol?

A session key recovery protocol is a cryptographic protocol used to recover or obtain the session key that is used for secure communication between two parties. This protocol is typically employed when the session key is lost, compromised, or needs to be reestablished due to various reasons such as system failures, network interruptions, or security breaches. The session key recovery protocol ensures that the communication can continue securely by allowing the parties to retrieve or generate a new session key.
