Patent ID: 10382450

Abstract:
Network data obfuscation is disclosed. For example, an obfuscation driver is initialized in an endpoint device connected to an obfuscation gateway over a secure connection by collaboratively generating a unique machine identifier of the endpoint device. An obfuscated communication session is established between the obfuscation driver and the obfuscation gateway. Obfuscated messages including obfuscation seeds, de-obfuscation instructions and message payloads are exchanged between the obfuscation driver and the obfuscation gateway. Obfuscating and de-obfuscating a given message includes reordering a plurality of message segments of the message based on the de-obfuscation instructions. A de-obfuscated message from the obfuscation driver is forwarded to an application, and a response is obfuscated by the obfuscation gateway before being transmitted to the obfuscation driver. An obfuscation seed exchange occurs between the obfuscation gateway and the obfuscation driver while the application is processing the de-obfuscated message.
