Abstract: A system for brand advertising on a global network of computers has a digital content that is created and stored on a server. The digital content embeds an advertising image and the digital content is structured in a manner that the advertisement image is the first display seen by a receiver client when the digital content is received from a server on the global network and viewed on the client. The advertising image substantially obscures the digital content from being viewed and removes the image from the display after a time threshold, thus enables the digital content to be viewed. The image is displayed for a time threshold that is programmed to a time period that is equal to or less than 3.5 seconds and the viewing of the image cannot be bypassed until the expiry of the time threshold.

Abstract: A random wave envelope is created from a set of bounded random numbers by additively combining a triangle, a square and a sine wave. The random wave envelope is then used to create a sequence of wave random numbers from the wave envelope, which are used to generate random-variant keys for encryption in place of the pre-placed encryption key. An ambiguity envelope is thus created over the transmission of data packets as random-variant-keys are used that are distinct and separate for each packet and may also be distinct and separate for each incoming and outgoing packet. The random-variant keys are only created at the time of the actual use for encrypting or decrypting a data packet and not before and then discarded after one time use. The random-variant keys may be used in wireless network using wireless access points, cellular phone and data networks and ad hoc mobile wireless networks.
