Abstract

A system for confidential data communication over the Internet and other communications channels between the server machine and client machine is disclosed. The client machine has a main CPU and a main memory and additional CPU and additional memory. The additional CPU and memory in the client machine are linked to the CPU and memory of the server machine via an Internet connection or other communications channel connection. The client and server CPUs and memories thus linked then cooperatively and simultaneously execute a single process while dynamically modifying the encryption and decryption codes as necessary to make decryption by a third party impossible.
