Abstract: A communication system configured to provide blockchain-driven certification of iterative electronic communications such as e-mail-based communications. The system provides blockchain-driven certification by storing the hash of an e-mail thread in a blockchain each time the message or its elements are modified. This allows the system to verify whether or not the thread has been tampered with since it was last modified, when the last verified message was added to the thread. The system creates a baseline that is used towards creating trust certificates ensuring the recipients of such iterative electronic communications that the message has not been breached during its iterations that are shared between two or more parties, e.g., communications participants including senders and recipients.

Abstract: Methods and systems for creating and managing electronic communications are disclosed. Exemplary methods can compress and encrypt meeting information and encode the compressed and encrypted meeting information into a uniform resource locator (URL) for transmission between one or more devices and a conferencing server.

Abstract: An example method of blockchain-enabled peer-to-peer communications is provided. The method is implemented in a communications system employing a peer-to-peer call network to provide communications capabilities between endpoints (nodes) of the call network. The system supports a distributed ledger system which enables the propagation of signaling data to initiate communications between nodes and for recording call data to provide an open, tamper-resistant log of activity on the network. Further, the system supports decentralized applications executable at nodes of the call network to customize call handling based on user preferences. In particular, the system may further support a distributed file system associated with the call network to store internal state data of the decentralized applications. The decentralized applications may thus be executed on individual, relevant nodes of the call network (i.e. relevant to the communications channel).

Abstract: An example method of initiation a communications channel at a source node in a peer-to-peer call network, includes: generating an initiation request to initiate the communications channel between the source node and a destination node in the peer-to-peer call network, the initiation request including signaling data for the source node to allow the destination node to establish a signaling channel; sending the initiation request to the peer-to-peer call network to be propagated to the destination node; and when the signaling channel between the source node and the destination node has been established, establishing a peer-to-peer media channel between the source node and the destination node, wherein the signaling channel and the media channel form the communications channel between the source node and the destination node.
