Abstract: Improved virtualized application performance is provided through disabling of unnecessary functions, such as unnecessary encryption and decryption operations. An example method performed by a hypervisor includes the steps of obtaining a request to one or more of encrypt and decrypt a communication between a first virtual machine and a second virtual machine; determining if the first and second virtual machines execute on a same host as the hypervisor (e.g., by evaluating a context of the communication); and processing the communication without encrypting or decrypting the communication if the first and second virtual machines execute on the same host. Lawful Interception is performed by forwarding an unencrypted version of the communication to an authorized agency.
