1. A system for facilitating attack-resilient communications between devices, wherein the system comprises a master system comprising:
a master network switch comprising a plurality of master ports; and
a plurality of master encryption retransmission devices connected with the master network switch through the plurality of master ports, wherein each of the plurality of master encryption retransmission devices associated with each of the plurality of master ports comprises at least one master encryption unit and a master communication unit communicatively coupled with the at least one master encryption unit, wherein the master system is configurable for connecting with at least one slave system, wherein each of the at least one slave system comprises a slave network switch and a plurality of slave encryption retransmission devices connected with the slave network switch using a plurality of slave ports of the slave network switch, wherein each of a managing master encryption retransmission device of the plurality of master encryption retransmission devices associated with a managing master port of the plurality of master ports and a managing slave encryption retransmission device of the plurality of slave encryption retransmission devices associated with a slave managing port of the plurality of slave ports is configured for receiving a managing packet, wherein each of the master network switch and the slave network switch is configured for:
identifying a first master encryption retransmission device of the plurality of master encryption retransmission devices and a first slave encryption retransmission device of the plurality of slave encryption retransmission devices based on the managing packet; and
enabling an attack-resilient communication between a first device connected with a first master communication unit of the first master encryption retransmission device via a first external encryption retransmission device and a second device connected with a first slave communication unit of the first slave encryption retransmission device via a second external encryption retransmission device.
