Communications service programs (e.g., packet-switched phone and conferencing software with recordings and voicemail) are enabled to process user data files using custom encryption methods, where the existing service programs should migrate to work with the encrypted data files. A framework is introduced between application and system layer for replacing the major file routines to apply user file encryption routines in a manner that is transparent for existing service programs without requiring re-compiling.

File encryption layer

A computer stores packets from a first device at a first buffer. The computer decodes the packets to obtain decoded packets at a decoder. The computer encodes encoding the decoded packets to obtain encoded packets at an encoder. The computer transmits the encoded packets from the encoder to a storage unit. The computer fetches the encoded packets from the storage unit using a second buffer. The computer causes a transmitter to transmit the encoded packets from the second buffer to a second device.

Packet processing at a computer

A server processers received real-time transport protocol packets from a first device to obtain sequentially ordered packets at a first buffer. The server decodes the sequentially ordered packets to obtain decoded packets at a decoder. The server encodes the decoded packets to obtain encoded packets at an encoder. The server transmits the encoded packets from the encoder to a storage unit. The server fetches the encoded packets from the storage unit at a first interval using a second buffer. The server transmits the encoded packets from the second buffer to a second device at a second interval.
