Abstract:
A data security system for providing cryptographic services in a multiprocessor platform having a first controller and a second controller, said multiprocessor platform supporting a distributed application, and said data security system comprising:a first processor element, in communication with said first controller, for executing an input interface object implemented utilizing object oriented programming to enable receipt of a first data set exhibiting a first data type from said first controller; a second processor element, in communication with said first processor element, for receiving said first data set from said first processor element, said second processor element executing a cryptographic function for manipulating said first data set to form a second data set exhibiting a second data type; and a third processor element, in communication with said second processor element, for executing an output interface object implemented utilizing said object oriented programming to enable receipt of said second data set from said second processor element and output said second data set to said second controller, said input interface object, said cryptographic function, and said output interface object being linked to create a cryptographic object executable exclusively on said data security system.
