System, Method and Apparatus For Secure Telecommunications In A Home Area Network

摘要

Secure message transfer is provided in a network including at least a Home Area Network (HAN) having network devices A, B and C. The Home Area Network is capable to connect domains having different transmission formats and includes a secure communication protocol. Device A is capable to communicate at least one message to the device C according to the secure communication protocol, and device B is capable to receive at least one message from device A sent for reception and decryption by device C. A device D controls the secure message transfer and selectively disables device B from decrypting the message received by device B that is sent from device A to device C for decryption.
