Abstract

The system identifies a data transmission path between a source node and a destination node in a computer network during a communication session. The transmission path includes one or more intermediary nodes used to transmit data from the source node to the destination node. The system identifies if the identified transmission path is one of a plurality of trusted transmission paths stored in a trusted transmission path table. When the identified transmission path is not one of the plurality of trusted transmission paths, the system generates a notification, which may include an instruction to terminate the communication session, a list comprising at least one of the plurality of trusted transmission paths and an instruction to transmit data using the at least one of the plurality of trusted transmission paths in the list, or an instruction to alert a customer that the at least one transmission path is not trusted.
