  • Systems and methods for protecting communications
    Patent number: 10382595
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a data packet including a header having a structure from an operating system at a virtualization layer, where the virtualization layer is above a physical layer and below all other layers. The method also includes performing an operation on a portion of the data packet other than the header, thereby creating a modified data packet and maintaining the original header structure. The method further includes transmitting the modified data packet, including the original header structure, to the physical layer.
