Secure wireless networks for vehicle assigning authority

A system for vehicle to mobile device secure wireless communications, the system comprising:

• a vehicle comprising an on-board computer with a memory having a vehicle identification number (VIN), a connector plug, and a motorized engine;
• a connected vehicle device (CVD) for the vehicle;
• and
• a mobile device;
• wherein the server is configured to generate a plurality of definitions for a secure connection packet (SCP) for an assigning authority for the vehicle;
• wherein the server is configured to transmit the plurality of definitions for the SCP from the server to the CVD and the mobile device;
• wherein the server is configured to receive a CVD compiled SCP generated from the plurality of definitions;
• wherein the server is configured to transmit authorization for the CVD compiled SCP to the CVD for creation of a validated SCP;
• wherein the CVD is configured to broadcast a secure wireless network with a hidden and hashed SSID unique to the vehicle and protected by a passphrase, the hidden and hashed SSID and passphrase generated from the validated SCP;
• wherein the mobile device is configured to generate the hashed SSID and the passphrase from a dataset generated from the plurality of definitions for the SCP, which allows the mobile device to connect to the wireless network for the vehicle;
• and
• wherein the mobile device is configured to search for and connect to the CVD over the secure wireless network.

A method for a secure connection to a wireless network of a vehicle, the method comprising:

• receiving, at a connected vehicle device (CVD), a plurality of definitions for a secure connection packet (SCP) from a server;
• compiling the plurality of definitions for the SCP at the CVD to generate a CVD compiled SCP;
• receiving at the CVD, authorization from the server for a validated SCP for the CVD compiled SCP;
• broadcasting at the CVD a secure wireless network with a hidden and hashed SSID unique to the vehicle and protected by a passphrase, the hidden and hashed SSID and passphrase generated from the validated SCP;
• and
• connecting, over the secure wireless network, the CVD to a mobile device that generated the hashed SSID and the passphrase from a dataset generated from the plurality of definitions.
