  • Scaleable architecture to support high assurance internet protocol encryption (HAIPE)
    Patent number: 7904711
    Abstract: A scalable internet protocol (IP) encryption system includes a cryptographic unit that processes sensitive data for packet encryption/decryption and data authentication. A first processing unit with an optional IP Layer hardware accelerator includes a data processing subsystem that processes sensitive data and forwards the data to the cryptographic unit for encryption and data authentication. A management subsystem is operative with the cryptographic unit for configuring IP networking functions and distributing network configuration information to the data processing subsystem through the cryptographic unit. Data processing is separated from management and control functions at the data processing and management subsystems.
    Type: Grant
