Abstract
Methods and systems for securing data are provided. For example, one method includes receiving at an adapter, data with a first type of error protection code from a host memory of a computing device; adding by the adapter a second type of error protection code to the data before removing the first type of error protection code; generating by the adapter, a frame header for the data with a protocol specific protection code and a third type of error protection code, where the third type of error protection code is generated without using any frame header field; encrypting by the adapter, the data, the protocol specific protection code and the third type of error protection code; and transmitting by the adapter, the encrypted data with encrypted protocol specific protection code and encrypted third type of error protection code to a receiving adapter coupled to the adapter by a network link.
