Summary:For secure communication in a nondeterministic network, a processor determines a first communication path to a first destination node in a network of nodes organized as an undirected graph. The communication path is a spanning tree of path nodes of the undirected graph. The processor further encrypts a message to the first destination node with an encryption using a set of first encryption keys. In addition, the processor communicates the encrypted message over the path nodes of the first communication path. Each transaction of each path node with the encrypted message is recorded and the encrypted message is decrypted at the first destination node with a subset of the set of first encryption keys. The subset of the set of first encryption keys are held by key holding nodes in communication with the first destination node.
