Abstract

See full text

A high security communication station delivers information to an authenticated user. The station receives encrypted information intended for a particular user. The station verifies the identity of the current user using the highly secure technology of retinal scan or iris scan in one embodiment. Once the station authenticates the current user, the station decrypts the received information and renders the information for secure delivery to the intended recipient, namely the authenticated current user. The station is configured such that the point of decryption is substantially co-located with the point of information delivery. By integrating the point of decryption, the point of information delivery as well as the point of user authentication in the same structure, the possibility of information interception by an unauthorized party is dramatically reduced.
