Abstract
An apparatus and method for secure and private communications in a triple-connected processor network. Communication of a message over at least three data paths is achieved by transmitting the message in coded form over the data paths, determining whether the message is correctly received, and if the message is not correctly received, identifying a non-faulty data path, testing remaining data paths to identify a faulty data path, and transmitting the message in coded form over remaining non-faulty data paths.
