Abstract

A system for and method of providing encrypted network communications is presented. The system and method involve creating encrypted frames used for secure communications between cooperating peers that are the same size as the original unencrypted frames. The system and method thus provide secure communications with essentially the same transmission characteristics as non-encrypted communications.
