Abstract
Systems and methods are provided that may be implemented to use compute capabilities of a network interface controller (NIC) to broker a secure connection across a network between a target information handling system (e.g., such as a server) and one or more other entities (e.g., such as other information handling systems implementing a cloud service or private network, and/or that are providing other remote service/s across the network). This secure connection may be brokered by the NIC at a hardware level in a manner that is separate from a host programmable integrated circuit of the same target information handling system, and in a way that is agnostic and independent of any host operating system or other logic that is executing on the host programmable integrated circuit of the target information handling system.
