Abstract:
1. A method for processing insecure data using an embedded system that is operationally coupled to a local device and a remote computing system using a network, comprising: providing at least a first connector and a second connector whereby the first connector provides physical connectivity with the remote computing system and includes at least an RJ-45 jack and further wherein the second connector couples the remote computing system with the local device; determining when the insecure data received from the local device is from a new connection; handshaking with the remote computing system when the insecure data received is from the new connection; the second connector assumes the media access controller (“MAC”) address and the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address of a local device so that an embedded system appears as the local device itself; encrypting the insecure data; and transmitting the encrypted data to the remote computing system.
