METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A CRYPTOSYNC

摘要

A method and apparatus for generating a cryptosync is disclosed that generates a cryptosync with the desired variability without the overhead in complexity and size of prior cryptosyncs. The cryptosync is generated from a combination of fields including fields relating to the segmentation and reassembly of the data packets at a transmitting terminal and a receiving terminal. The resultant cryptosync does not repeat during the use of a particular security key.
