Abstract: Described are implementations that analyze the unencrypted messages of a cryptographic protocol handshake between two devices and/or the receipt or absence of encrypted messages of the handshake to detect security vulnerabilities of one or both of those devices. For example, the unencrypted messages of a TLS handshake between a client device and a server may be analyzed to determine security vulnerabilities of the client device. Because the disclosed implementations utilize the unencrypted messages of a handshake and/or detection of the receipt or absence of encrypted messages of the handshake, involvement in the handshake or decryption of encrypted messages of the handshake is not necessary. The requirement is that the disclosed implementations are able to observe the messages of a handshake that are used to establish a secure communication between the devices.

Abstract: A method for multiplexing voice and data communication using a communications network is presented. In the method, at least one voice bit from a voice bit stream is retrieved, and at least one data bit from at least one data bit stream is retrieved. When the voice bit stream is not in a discontinuous transmission (DTX) period, the at least one voice bit and the at least one data bit are used to generate a modulated symbol. The method includes transmitting the modulated symbol using the communications network.
