The following diagram illustrates how ID information is sent from the panel to
the server when encryption is being used with B.A.S.I.S.:
The numbers below correlate to the numbers in the diagram above, which
describes the path taken when a card is swiped.
1. ID information from the card swiped at the panel goes to the LANtronix
box, where it is encrypted using key A.
2. Encrypted ID information is sent from the LANtronix box to the Secure
Port on the IRE SafeNet/Speed box.
3. Encrypted ID information is sent from the Unsecure port on the IRE
SafeNet/Speed box to the network, without communicating to an end-
decryption device.
4. Encrypted ID information is sent from the network to the workstation that
is in the secured area.
5. At the workstation, the ID information that was encrypted using key A is
decrypted, then encrypted using key B and sent to the network.
6. Encrypted ID information is sent from the network to the server, where it is
decrypted using key B and stored in the database.
