Abstract
A secure packet processor includes a buffer, a cryptographic engine and an authentication engine. The buffer is adapted to receive a secure packet that includes encrypted data and indicates an authentication signature. The cryptographic engine is adapted to decrypt the encrypted data to produce an indication of second data. The authentication engine is adapted to use the encrypted data to validate the signature concurrently with the decryption of at least a portion of the decrypted data. The authentication engine and the cryptographic engines may also be adapted to concurrently validate and encrypt data of an unsecure packet.
