SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURE COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN A COMPUTER TEST TOOL AND A CLOUD-BASED SERVER
First Claim
1. A system for providing data communication, comprising:
- at least one computer test tool configured to perform one or more diagnostic tests on a computer network and output associated test data;
at least one communication device configured to couple to the at least one computer test tool to receive and cache the test data from the at least one computer test tool and to wirelessly couple to a communication network; and
a cloud-based server configured to couple to the communication network so as to receive test data transmitted from the at least one communication device wherein the test data is encrypted in the at least one computer test tool and decrypted in the cloud-based server.

Abstract
A system for providing data communication is provided. The system includes at least one computer test tool configured to perform one or more diagnostic tests on a computer network. The system further includes at least one communication device configured to couple to the at least one computer test tool to receive and cache test data from the at least one computer test tool and to wirelessly couple to a communication network. In addition, the system includes a cloud-based server configured to couple to the communication network so as to receive test data transmitted from the at least one communication device wherein the test data is encrypted in the at least one computer test tool and decrypted in the cloud-based server.

19. A cloud-based server for providing data communication, comprising:
-
a memory configured to store executable instructions; and a processor disposed in communication with said memory, wherein said processor upon execution of the instructions is configured to; receive encrypted test data from a communication device upon establishment of communication of the communication device with the cloud-based server via a communication network, wherein the test data is captured during a diagnostic test performed in a computer test device, cached and encrypted in the computer test device, configured to be decrypted in the cloud-based server and transmitted to the communication device upon establishment of communication between the communication device and the computer test device; and decrypt the encrypted test data.
