Abstract

A secure Voice-Over-IP (VOIP), video and data network functionality in a single, small size deployable case, for a remote user. While capable of secure communications, the disclosed system also provides communication capability (VOIP, video and/or data) in a non-secure manner if desired. Most importantly, bulk encrypted (i.e., secure) data may be routed over a public network, e.g., the Internet.

Claims

1. A method for providing network functionality and voice-over-IP services to a remote user at a deployed location, comprising:

providing an encryption module having a secure side and a non-secure side;

accessing said non-secure side of said encryption module with bulk network data;

passing said bulk network data through said encryption module to produce encrypted bulk network data;

encapsulating said encrypted bulk network data in IP packets; and

routing said encapsulated encrypted bulk network data through an Internet.
