ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method and system for injecting a number of different signal patterns onto a tone encoded telecommunications line for the purpose of preventing unauthorized eavesdropping. The system relies upon the use of an unused column frequency of the DTMF signals and a notched filter to remove that frequency from received transmission. The second technique is the insertion of precise levels of three valid tones. A third method is the modulation of all of the tones yielding side tones which are also in the valid range, and a fourth method is by sending random signature tones on the line, thereby preventing tape recording and playback of the coded tone communcation.
