I remember using the old STU-II/B secure phones (1989-1997) - call someone then tell them "going secure" and you'd turn the crypto key on the side. Sounded like you'd entered a deep dark tunnel after that. Had a built in 9600 baud modem, used them to send secure data between computers - but when you went secure it cut the speed to 2400 baud due to the encryption. Seemed like dated technology even then - very cold war feel to it all.
