The ROC effectively synchronizes the cryptographic transformation of the data packets. Although the disclosed methods are generally applicable to many transmission protocols, they are particularly adaptable for use in systems wherein the data packets are transmitted to a receiver using the Secure Real-Time Transport Protocol (SRTP) as defined in Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comments (RFC) 3711.

A method and associated system for efficiently firing mapping and transform rules during a bidirectional synchronization of two or more systems. A processor loads a set of mapping and transform synchronization rules and a set of cross-reference tables. When an event message received from a source system identifies a revision to an element of the source system's data, the processor parses the message to identify the revised source-system data. The processor uses the cross-references to identify synchronization rules that are associated with the revised data element. If any of the identified rules requires an additional source-system data element or an extrinsic data element located at an external source, the processor retrieves those further identified data elements. The processor then looks up the synchronization procedure of the identified rules, packages it into a synchronization message, and sends the message to the target system.
