Abstract

The present disclosure envisages establishing a virtual overlay network between the source computer and the destination computer (in addition to a typical, unsecured, public computer network already connecting the source computer and the destination computer), and designating the source computer and destination computer to be identified on the virtual overlay network only by the corresponding source private IP address and destination private IP address. The present disclosure envisages an intermediary server for creating and subsequently managing the virtual overlay network. The intermediary server renders the virtual overlay network accessible only to the source computer and the destination computer to communicate with one another and to exchange data packets using the source private IP address and destination private address and the corresponding private ports, while ensuring that the virtual overlay network remains inaccessible to any other computer on the underlying public computer network.
