Abstract
A method of providing clear text representing encrypted data to an entity that does not support an encryption/decryption protocol used to encrypt/decrypt the data is disclosed. A call to an encryption/decryption function implemented in a worker node is detected, wherein the call is to trigger encryption or decryption of a packet. In response to detecting the call, a clear text payload of the packet is captured from an entry point or an exit point of the encryption/decryption function. A modified packet is then created based on the captured clear text payload, including synthesizing a plurality of headers for the modified packet and appending the plurality of headers to the clear text payload. The modified packet is then sent to a processing entity that is external to the worker node.
