  • Patent number: 12705344
    Abstract: To generate an encrypted packet, a transmitting endpoint in a communication system chooses the desired IPsec tunnel, then retrieves the SA linked to that tunnel from its Outbound SA table of its local SA database (SAD), and encrypts the packet using the retrieved SA. To decrypt the encrypted packet, the receiving endpoint extracts the Security Parameter Index (SPI) value, the source address, the destination address, and the source port number from the packet to retrieve the appropriate SA from its local SAD database and decrypts the encrypted packet using the retrieved SA. In this way, the transmitting and receiving endpoints can retrieve the appropriate SAs for situations in which either endpoint is one of multiple endpoints located behind a Carrier-Grade Network Address Translation (CG-NAT) function having a single public IP address shared by the multiple endpoints.

  • Patent number: 12574217
    Abstract: Systems and methods for cryptographic key storage management whereby the system receives a first request to access a first API and communicatively connects a channel to a key management service (KMS) that is on a serverless computing platform. After receiving a cryptographic key from the KMS, the system attaches the cryptographic key to the first API, thereby creating a first data structure. The system stores the first data structure to a writable storage location that has a predetermined maximum capacity for data structures. The system receives a second request to access the first API and retrieves and uses the stored first data structure to grant access to the first API. The system also determines when the writable storage location has reached the predetermined capacity and determines and evicts a least recently used data structure stored to the writable storage location.
