Nuera, Syndeo and InnoMedia Team to Deliver End-to-End Security.Business Editors & High-Tech Writers CableLabs Winter Conference 2003 SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 6, 2003 Nuera Communications Inc., Syndeo Corp. and InnoMedia Inc. today announced that they will demonstrate end-to-end cable telephony See cable telephone. voice encryption at the CableLabs(R) Winter Conference 2003 in Broomfield, Colo. The Nuera ORCA Orca - Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, 1986. Similar to Modula-2, but with support for distributed programming using shared data objects, like Linda. A 'graph' data type removes the need for pointers. Version for the Amoeba OS, comes with Amoeba. (R) BTX (Balanced Technology EXtended) A motherboard design from Intel introduced in 2004 that supersedes the ATX. Unlike the ATX, the placement of all chip sockets in the BTX is defined in order to provide sufficient air flow over the processor and display adapter. gateway, the Syndeo Syion(TM) softswitch and the InnoMedia MTA (1) (Message Transfer Agent or Mail Transfer Agent) The store and forward part of a messaging system. See messaging system. (2) See M Technology Association. 1. (messaging) MTA - Message Transfer Agent. 3328-1 single-port standalone Multimedia Terminal Adapter See ISDN terminal adapter. terminal adapter - Terminal Adaptor work together to deliver secure Voice-over-IP (VoIP) that is based on CableLabs PacketCable(TM) 1.0 security requirements. This solution provides encrypted and authenticated phone conversations over a cable network. Nuera, Syndeo and InnoMedia implemented two standard technologies to achieve the voice security: Advanced Encryption Standard (cryptography, algorithm) Advanced Encryption Standard - (AES) The NIST's replacement for the Data Encryption Standard (DES). The Rijndael /rayn-dahl/ symmetric block cipher, designed by Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen, was chosen by a NIST contest to be AES. (AES) and Multilinear Modular Hash (MMH MMH Modern Materials Handling MMH Monomethyl Hydrazine MMH Morristown Memorial Hospital (Morristown, New Jersey) MMH Master of Management in Hospitality MMH Maintenance Man-Hours MMH Manchester Memorial Hospital ). AES is an encryption algorithm A formula used to turn ordinary data, or "plaintext," into a secret code known as "ciphertext." Each algorithm uses a string of bits known as a "key" to perform the calculations. The larger the key (the more bits), the greater the number of potential patterns can be created, thus making that prevents unauthorized surveillance of a voice call. MMH authenticates the source of the encrypted voice packets and prevents a call from an unauthorized source. "Customers demand privacy when speaking on the phone," said Larry Greenstein, Director of Product Management, Nuera. "The voice encryption technology that we will demonstrate at the Winter Conference will assure cable operators and consumers that there is a solution for secure VoIP over cable." "Our MSO (1) (Multiple System Operator) Typically refers to a cable TV organization that owns more than one cable system, but it may refer to an operator of only one system. customers have impressed strongly upon us the importance of being able to provide secure voice calls over their network. They consider it a 'must-have' for volume deployment," said Sohail Parekh, Syndeo's Vice President of Engineering. "This joint effort between Nuera, Syndeo, and InnoMedia shows cable operators that vendors are listening to them, and moreover are working together to deliver what they have asked for." "We are excited about the market opportunities for secure VoIP over cable," said Shailesh Patel, Senior Director, Broadband Product Management, of InnoMedia Inc. "This solution is another demonstration of InnoMedia broadband technologies and products taking communications to the next level." The CableLabs Winter Conference, Feb. 10-12, is a closed session for its members and addresses the strategic and technical issues companies face in the changing broadband business.
