Abstract

According to one embodiment, a system includes a processing circuit and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processing circuit. The logic is configured to cause the processing circuit to determine, by an application operating on a first host in a network, one or more security features and/or capabilities available to the application for protecting the application and first data used by the application from unauthorized activity. The logic is also configured to cause the processing circuit to send, by an ADPL operating on the first host via a data socket descriptor, a first message to one or more peer applications in the network, the first message including indication of the one or more security features and/or capabilities available to the application. The logic may further cause the processing circuit to receive a second message indicating security features available to a peer application in the network operating on another host.
