Secure Data Transmission System

摘要

A secure messaging system that requires pairing of second and receiving devices via user identification credentials and the associated media access control addresses (MAC addresses) of the paired devices. Paired devices may communicate encrypted messages and deletion parameters may be established by a sending device, including immediate deletion requests. The message and the instructions are automatically decrypted by the receiving device and interpreted to provide the data and configure the deletion parameters. The system preferably manages device pairing via a remote server that is accessed by a device application.

1. A method of securely transmitting messages between electronic devices, comprising:
receiving a request to send a message from a sending device having a first MAC address to a receiving device having a second MAC address; confirming that said first MAC address of said sending device matches at least said one of a predetermined plurality of unique MAC addresses associated with a corresponding plurality of registered electronic devices and stored in memory; confirming that said second MAC address of said receiving device matches another one of said predetermined plurality of unique MAC addresses in said memory; and forwarding said message from said sending device to said receiving device if said first and second MAC addresses are confirmed as having matches in said memory.
