Abstract
A method for protecting data communications using a multiple processor device in which multiple processors are operatively connected by a transport mechanism for sharing data. One or more of the processors is programmed as a dispatcher and other processors are programmed with processes. Each of the processes enforce an identical security policy and/or perform an identical or specialized security function. Data streams are transferred respectively from the dispatcher to the processes through the transport mechanism. Control information is transmitted through the transport mechanism from one or more processes to the dispatcher. The control information specifies balancing load of the data streams between the processes. The dispatcher balances load based on the control information.
