Abstract

Communication elements for secure data communication between remote nodes of a computer system on a standard communications medium. Terminals, workstations and personal computers are connected through a user-side terminator to a standard unsecured communications medium. Processors are connected through a computer-side terminator to the same medium. The combination of a user-side terminator, a computer-side terminator and a standard communications medium constitutes a secure computer interface.
