Enhanced Data Authentication System v. 2.0

EDAS is a system, comprised on hardware and software, that plugs in to an existing data stream, and branches all data for transmission to a secondary observer computer. The EDAS Junction box, which inserts into the data stream, has Java software that forms these data into packets, digitally signs, encrypts, and sends these packets to a safeguards inspector computer. Further, there is a second Java program running on the secondary observer computer that receives data from the EDAS Junction Box to decrypt, authenticate, and store incoming packets. Also, there is a stand-alone Java program that is used to configure the EDAS Junction Box.
