Patent ID: 8600050

Claim:
One or more non-transitory media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method of securely communicating data, the method comprising: encrypting a data stream that is to be securely communicated utilizing a first algorithm, thereby producing an encrypted data stream that is an encrypted form of the data stream; splitting the encrypted data stream in to at least two encrypted data portions, wherein the extracted portion comprises data portions removed from the encrypted data stream and data-position indicators identifying each location of the removed data portions in the encrypted data stream; creating at least two subsets of data from the encrypted data stream by extracting one or more encrypted data portions from the encrypted data stream, thereby leaving a remaining portion and at least one extracted portion; communicating the remaining portion to a destination by way of at least one communications channel; communicating the extracted portion to the destination by way of at least one other communications channel; and providing for recombining the remaining portion and the extracted portion to facilitate recovery of the encrypted data stream, wherein the recombining comprises temporally matching and reassembling data by reinserting the removed data portions from the extracted portion from the other communications channel into correct positions of the remaining portion from the communications channel as indicated by the position indicators from the extracted portion from the other communications channel.
