So basically... computers. That have been either modified, or created, in such a way that they are illegal. They do not actually specify how. The phrasing is "modified and bespoke devices that enable access to platforms [...] where the software/hardware has been developed to anonymise its users and their communications".
Now... of course, we can always trust the good intentions of government bodies and agencies wink but it sounds like by this definition, installing Tor and a couple of apps that use it onto a phone could qualify as a "sophisticated encrypted communication device."
It seems that in a race to the bottom, the UK government is always a few steps further ahead of their peers.
