Abstract

A baseband processor of a communication device, the baseband processor comprising a multiple encryption manager that utilizes a transmit data stream as an input data stream in the case that the transmit data stream is determined not to already have encryption applied by a higher layer component, and that utilizes a known unencrypted dataset as an input data stream in the case that the transmit data stream is determined to already have encryption applied by a higher layer component, an encryptor block that encrypts the input data stream into an encrypted data stream, and a randomness inspector that is in communication with the encryptor block, the randomness inspector unit accessing the input data stream and the encrypted data stream from the encryptor block and determining a randomness gain by comparing a first randomness measurement associated with the input data stream to a second randomness measurement associated with the encrypted data stream.
