Be careful! Scrambling != encryption !!!!! Scrambling it's applied to an analog signal to convert some frequencies. SIGSALY it's Secure Digital Voice Communications in World War II: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGSALY - http://www.flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/2534235949/ If you scramble your voice, staying within the frequencies allowed by the narrowband compression codec used by skype you cannot have a full digital path on which encipher a data stream with a good encryption algorithm (that process bucks of data and not frequencies). There are no secure scrambling technology. The only way to secure a voice path is to have a digital path enciphered on which you put the compressed voice sample. But working on the "analog" processing the voice before it's compressed it's NOT an option. For such reason i was wondering how this could be accomplished on a Skype based call. Maybe by enciphered audio samples directly in the memory of skype: - Hooking into skype to encipher audio samples before they are packed in a frame? - Hooking into skype to encipher audio samples after they are packed in a frame? Or maybe by leveraging the skype transport for the "digital path" and using our own encoding/decoding framework: - Changing some bunch of data (from offset X to offset Y) in the ip packets "on the net"? (There's some checksum?) Are all funky ideas, but i mean, i don't trust skype :) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
