	Secure Terminal Equipment - Definition, explanation
		Secure Terminal Equipment (STE) is the U.S. Government's current (as of 2004), encrypted telephone communications system for wired or "landline" communications.
		STE is designed to use ISDN telephone lines which offer higher speeds of up to 128k bits per second and are all digital.
		The STE system is designed so that when the STE set and the Crypto Card are separated, neither is considered classified.

		Secure Telephone is a compact, self- contained, desktop unit capable of providing the user with both clear as well as secure voice and data transmissions.
		Secure Telephone is a telephone that provides voice security in the form of end-to-end encryption for the telephone call, and in some cases also the mutual authentication of the call parties, protecting them against a man in the middle attack.
		Secure Telephone equipment may be used to provide secure communications on all commercial and military telephone networks.

	STU-III Secure Telephone Units, Crypto Key Generators, Encryption Equipment and Scramblers
		Secure transmissions; whether telephone conversations, facsimile (fax) copies, or automated information systems (AIS) communications have long been possible through encryption, but for many years the equipment was bulky, complex, and expensive.
		STE, however, is automatically secure if both callers are using STE systems and the phones exchange codes in the time it takes to pick up the ringing telephone.
		The Secure Terminal Equipment (STE) is the evolutionary successor to the STU-III.

	Selections from the Current Issue
		The communications sanctity inherent in secure telephone units is migrating into the cellular arena with a new generation of handheld devices no larger than conventional commercial mobile telephones.
		As new security standards and capabilities are developed, their algorithms can be downloaded into the cellular unit through a designated terminal.
		The unit can provide links at two security levels up through type I. Secure calls can be placed between two mobile telephones possessing this capability as well as from the QSec-800 to secure terminal equipment via a secure telephone exchange.

		Ensure both interoperability and security test and evaluation plans are prepared for all telecommunication switches (acquired or procured) intended to operate on the DSN and DRSN.
		Telecommunication switches determined to be an acceptable technical, security, and mission risk may be submitted to the DISA for JIC or IA testing, as appropriate; or may be replaced with a certified and accredited switch from the APL.
		Assured long-haul capability (long distance terminations on telecommunications switches at initiating installations to long distance terminations on telecommunications switches at distant installations) for supporting a regional crisis in one theater, while retaining the surge capacity to respond to a regional crisis occurring nearly simultaneously in another theater.

	Voice encryption (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-26)
		STU IIIs are considered incredibly secure, hence are restricted to government and military users, along with their civillian contractors.
		STEs provide a platform for secure 'high-speed' (128k) data allowing for video-conferencing, fax and voice applications.
		The largest proplem with any communications security device is that a unit is required at each end of the conversation for the system to work; so unless you're prepared to sacrafice some of your privacy by making unencrypted calls you'll swiftly end up broke.
