This is one of the concepts I'd raised yesterday, generating a nonce using
a unique value that only the vendor and the phone knows (i.e. a serial
number, or in future phones, TPM/RSA module). However if the keys are ever
compromised, then this would be rendered useless. Encryption is also good,
but relies on a strong password which is difficult to type in on a phone
and removes the concept of zero touch.

To be honest, I don't think zero touch is going to be feasible if we want
to keep security, because you are trusting that the keys stored at <vendors
provisioning system here> haven't been compromised. One touch would be a
much better solution (there have been some great suggestions on that so
far).
