Abstract: A secure communication tunnel between user space software and a client device can be established. A private session key can be communicated from the user space software to a network communication device via an application programming interface. Outbound session packets can be communicated from the user space software to the network communication device. The network communication device can generate encrypted outbound session packets by encrypting the outbound session packets using the private session key; communicate to the client device, via the secured communication tunnel, the encrypted outbound session packets; receive, by the network communication device from the client device, via the secured communication tunnel, inbound session packets; generate decrypted inbound session packets by decrypting the inbound session packets using the private session key; and communicate the decrypted inbound session packets.

Abstract: A secure communication tunnel between user space software and a client device can be established. A private session key can be accessed from a cryptographic service. The private session key can be communicated from the user space software to a network communication device. Outbound session packets can be communicated from the user space software to the network communication device. The network communication device can be configured to generate encrypted outbound session packets by encrypting the outbound session packets using the private session key; communicate to the client device, via the secured communication tunnel, the encrypted outbound session packets; receive from the client device, via the secured communication tunnel, inbound session packets; generate decrypted inbound session packets by decrypting the inbound session packets using the private session key; and communicate the decrypted inbound session packets.

Abstract: A network communication device can receive a private session key from a data processing system. A first work queue element can be received in a send queue of the network communication device. The first work queue element can indicate outbound session data to be communicated to a client device. Responsive to receiving the first work queue element, the network communication device can generate encrypted outbound session data by encrypting the outbound session data using the private session key. The network communication device can communicate, via remote directory memory access (RDMA) over a secured communication tunnel, the encrypted outbound session data to the client device.

Abstract: A secure communication tunnel between user space software and a client device can be established. A private session key can be communicated from the user space software to a network communication device in at least one User Datagram Protocol datagram. Outbound session backets can be communicated from the user space software to the network communication device.

Abstract: A protocol stack can be offloaded to a network communication device. A private session key can be communicated from the user space software to a network communication device via an application programming interface. Outbound session packets can be communicated from the user space software to the network communication device. The network communication device can be configured to process headers in the outbound session packets, generate encrypted outbound session packets by encrypting the outbound session packets using the private session key, and communicate to a client device via the secured communication tunnel, the encrypted outbound session packets.

Abstract: Embodiments for providing enhanced endpoint multicast emulation in a computing environment. One or more multicast operations may be executed on an overlay network using endpoint multicast emulation by using an overlay layer or a virtual extensible LAN (“VXLAN”) layer to maintain control over one or more multicast groups.
