El procedimiento de la «criptofonía» (criptografía + telefonía) o «sacrofonía», empleado en la actualidad a nivel internacional. [...] consiste en proteger las conversaciones telefónicas enmascarando las voces de los interlocutores. Un mecanismo de cifrar, el «modulador» o «mezclador», transforma las señales de origen convirtiéndolas en un sonido incoherente y confuso. Luego, otro aparato, el «demulador», se encarga de rectificarlas de salida, donde se halla el receptor autorizado. 5, record 1, Spanish, - criptofon%C3%ADa
