Abstract

Various embodiments are described that relate to random noise addition to a communication. A first secure network can employ a first encryption scheme and a second secure network can employ a second encryption scheme. In order to communicate between the first secure network and the second secure network such that the schemes are not decipherable, random noise can be added to a communication designated to transfer from the first secure network to the second secure network.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A system configured to be part of a first secure network, the system comprising:
a reception component configured to receive an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a second secure network;
a decryption component configured to decrypt the first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the second secure into a decrypted first secure network voice communication; and
a transmission component configured to transmit the decrypted first secure network voice communication to a communication modification component,
where at the communication modification component the decrypted first secure network voice communication is randomly-modified to produce a randomly-modified first secure network voice communication,
where the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication is transferred to the second secure network,
where the first secure network employs a first encryption scheme,
where the second secure network employs a second network encryption scheme, and
where the first network encryption scheme and the second network encryption scheme are different encryption schemes.

2. The system of claim 1 ,
where the communication modification component is implemented as a noise addition component where random noise is added and to produce the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication.

3. The system of claim 2 ,
where the first secure network and the second secure network are separate and distinct networks,
where the noise addition component transfers the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication to an encryption component of the second secure network that encrypts the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication in accordance with the second encryption scheme,
where the decrypted first secure network voice communication is a first decrypted first secure network voice communication,
where the reception component is configured to receive an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a third secure network,
where the decryption component is configured to decrypt the encrypted first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the third secure network into a second decrypted first secure network voice communication,
where the transmission component is configured to transmit the second decrypted first secure network voice communication to the noise addition component where random noise is added and after the random noise is added the second decrypted first secure network voice communication is transferred to the third secure network,
where the third secure network employs a third encryption scheme,
where the first encryption scheme and the third encryption schemes are different schemes, and
where the second encryption scheme and the third encryption scheme are different schemes.

4. The system of claim 2 ,
where the first secure network and the second secure network are separate and distinct networks.

5. The system of claim 2 ,
where the noise addition component transfers the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication to an encryption component of the second secure network that encrypts the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication in accordance with the second encryption scheme.

6. The system of claim 2 ,
where the decrypted first secure network voice communication is a first decrypted first secure network voice communication.

7. The system of claim 2 ,
where the reception component is configured to receive an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a third secure network.

8. The system of claim 7 ,
where the decryption component is configured to decrypt the encrypted first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the third secure network into a second decrypted first secure network voice communication.

9. The system of claim 7 ,
where the transmission component is configured to transmit the second decrypted first secure network voice communication to the noise addition component where random noise is added and after the random noise is added the second decrypted first secure network voice communication is transferred to the third secure network.

10. The system of claim 7 ,
where the third secure network employs a third encryption scheme.

11. The system of claim 10 ,
where the first encryption scheme and the third encryption scheme are different schemes.

12. The system of claim 7 ,
where the second encryption scheme and the third encryption scheme are different schemes.

13. The system of claim 1 ,
where the first secure network and the second secure network are separate and distinct networks.

14. The system of claim 1 ,
where the decrypted first secure network voice communication is a first decrypted first secure network voice communication.

15. The system of claim 1 ,
where the reception component is configured to receive an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a third secure network.

16. The system of claim 15 ,
where the decryption component is configured to decrypt the encrypted first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the third secure network into a second decrypted first secure network voice communication.

17. The system of claim 15 ,
where the third secure network employs a third encryption scheme,
where the first encryption scheme and the third encryption scheme are different schemes, and
where the second encryption scheme and the third encryption scheme are different schemes.

18. A method, performed at least in part by a first secure network, the method comprising:
receiving an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a second secure network;
decrypting the first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the second secure into a decrypted first secure network voice communication; and
causing transmission of the decrypted first secure network voice communication to a communication modification component,
where at the communication modification component the decrypted first secure network voice communication is randomly-modified to produce a randomly-modified first secure network voice communication,
where the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication is transferred to the second secure network,
where the first secure network employs a first encryption scheme,
where the second secure network employs a second network encryption scheme, and
where the first network encryption scheme and the second network encryption scheme are different encryption schemes.

19. The system of claim 18 ,
where the communication modification component is implemented as a noise addition component where random noise is added and to produce the randomly-modified decrypted first secure network voice communication.

20. The system of claim 19 , the method comprising:
receiving an encrypted first secure network voice communication with an intended destination of a third secure network;
decrypting the encrypted first secure network voice communication with the intended destination of the third secure network into a second decrypted first secure network voice communication; and
transmitting the second decrypted first secure network voice com
