4. DESCRIPTION
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
A method of Securing Transmission of Audio Signals over the Internet
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the use of the internet for transmitting audio signals. However, the transmission of these signals over the internet can be vulnerable to security breaches, including interception and unauthorized access. To address these concerns, the present invention provides a method for secure transmission of audio signals over the internet.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a method for secure transmission of audio signals over the internet, which includes the following steps:
1 Encryption of the audio signals using a secure algorithm.
2 Transmission of the encrypted audio signals over the internet using a secure protocol.
3 Decryption of the encrypted audio signals at the receiving end using the same algorithm as used for encryption.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The method for secure transmission of audio signals over the internet involves several steps that are carried out at both the transmitting and receiving ends. The method includes the following steps:

4 Encryption of the audio signals:
5 The encryption process involves converting the audio signals into an encrypted format using a secure algorithm such as AES. The encryption key used for the process is shared between the transmitting and receiving ends. AES is a widely used encryption standard that provides a high level of security and is considered one of the most secure encryption algorithms available today.
6 Transmission of the encrypted audio signals:
7 After encryption, the audio signals are transmitted over the internet using a secure protocol such as SSL or TLS. These protocols provide an additional layer of security to the transmission process, ensuring that the encrypted audio signals are protected from interception and unauthorized access during transmission. SSL and TLS are commonly used protocols for secure communication over the internet and are widely accepted as secure and reliable protocols.
8 Decryption of the encrypted audio signals:
9 At the receiving end, the encrypted audio signals are decrypted using the same algorithm (AES) and the decryption key that was used for encryption. The decryption key is shared between the transmitting and receiving ends. The decryption process reverses the encryption process, restoring the audio signals to their original format. The decrypted audio signals are then available for playback or processing.
Overall, the method for secure transmission of audio signals over the internet ensures that the audio signals are protected from interception and unauthorized access, thereby ensuring a high level of security during transmission. The use of encryption and secure protocols such as AES, SSL, and TLS ensures that the audio signals are protected from various types of cyber threats, including interception, eavesdropping, and data breaches.
