NETWORK ENCRYPTION METHODS FOR REALIZING ENCRYPTION OF LOCAL AREA NETWORKS AT THE BOTTOM LAYER DRIVER OF NETWORK CARDS OF EMBEDDED DEVICES

摘要

Disclosed herein is a network encryption method for realizing encryption of a local area network at the bottom layer driver of a network card of an embedded device. By using such method, an encryption protocol is performed on the network card driver, thereby achieving encryption and decryption of all network data in the network card driver within the local area network, and achieving encryption of all data above network linking layer, so as to achieve unified encryption of all data in the local area network, resulting in enhanced safety of transmission of network data. Moreover, since encryption of the network data is performed in the network driver, developers do not need to focus on encryption situation.
