I think this is what it says it is - a data encyption/decryption system.
I have a thing called a 'modem maximiser' (a serial port data buffer box with
a real time clock, parallel printer port, etc) that has an optional
encryption unit. It too was a potted module. As I had a few spare modules I cut
one apart and found it contained an 8032 (I think) microcontroller, RAM, a ROM
(I must desolder that and examine it) and a TTL latch. Pretty much what you'd
expect - a little microcontroller that reads in data, encrypts it, and sends
it out again.
