Abstract
A method of distributing computations is provided. The method includes receiving a secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol request over secured sockets layer, and routing the request to an SSL handler that is distributed on a network of computer systems. Secured sockets layer front end processing is performed on the first server, which then sends SSL big number requests to a second server over a secure channel. The second server performs public key computations using a SSL big number library, and returns the replies to the first server, which completes the SSL processing and routes the request to a web server.
