Patent
CA 2369716
An adapter card operatively coupled to an internal bus of a host computer including a host bus, for wirespeed security treatment of communications traffic is disclosed. The card includes a network controller for communicating with clients on said network; a memory for storing data and code, where the code includes a high speed load handler application for controlling I/O, DMA, the host bus, a system bus and at least one communications port; a processing unit coupled to the memory for executing the code; a protocol adapter coupled to the processing unit, and adapted to couple to the host bus, for communicating with the host computer; where the processing unit is adapted to exploit unused resources of the host computer when resources on the adapter card are saturated. The card includes its own TCP/IP stack, and overrides the operating system of the host. Thus, communication between the host and the card can be effected through the bus with risking a security breach. The card also preferably includes a plurality of specialized processors; which are adapted to perform specific tasks, such as security, encryption, VPN, SSL, etc. The card is particularly adapted for high speed treatment of information.
