Abstract

A method and system transmit data from a source node to a destination node through multiple intermediate nodes. The data is split into shares using a secret sharing algorithm, each routed differently through the network, though all routes share at least one common first intermediate node. At least two of the routes are different from each other. Datagrams are constructed to convey each share along its route. Each datagram is encrypted with its respective intermediate node's key and contains a payload and routing instructions directing that node to forward the payload's data toward the destination. Prior route segments are common across shares. Each datagram, except the initial one, is encapsulated within the preceding datagram's payload. At least one datagram's payload contains multiple encapsulated datagrams, with routing instructions directing the intermediate node to forward them to different nodes. The initial datagram is transmitted to the first intermediate node.
