Method for establishing secure communication link between computers of virtual private network without user entering any cryptographic information
DC CAFCFirst Claim
1. A method for establishing a secure communication link between a first computer and a second computer over a computer network, the method comprising steps of:
- enabling a secure communication mode of communication at the first computer without a user entering any cryptographic information for establishing the secure communication mode of communication; and
establishing the secure communication link between the first computer and a second computer over a computer network based on the enabled secure communication mode of communication, the secure communication link being a virtual private network communication link over the computer network.

Abstract
A technique is disclosed for establishing a secure communication link between a first computer and a second computer over a computer network. Initially, a secure communication mode of communication is enabled at a first computer without a user entering any cryptographic information for establishing the secure communication mode of communication. Then, a secure communication link is established between the first computer and a second computer over a computer network based on the enabled secure communication mode of communication. The secure communication link is a virtual private network communication link over the computer network in which one or more data values that vary according to a pseudo-random sequence are inserted into each data packet.
