Abstract: Disclosed is a method and system for securely communicating between an initiating user at an initiating system and a destination entity. In one aspect, the system includes a general purpose processor, a security processor, secure memory, a human interpretable data input device for receiving secure human interpretable data and insecure human interpretable data, a cryptographic module, an interface for interfacing the security processor with the general purpose processor so that the general purpose processor is able to access secure human interpretable data only after the secure human interpretable data has been encrypted by the encryption module and is able to access the insecure human interpretable data in unencrypted form, and a transmitter for transmitting encrypted secure human interpretable data to a destination entity. In another aspect, the method includes a protocol for secure communications using the system of the present invention.
