METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PACKET SOURCE VALIDATION ARCHITECTURE SYSTEM FOR ENHANCED INTERNET SECURITY

摘要

A router in a global computer network for enhanced Internet security provides for an adaptation of major routers of the global computer network with a packet source validation function. The validation function checks the presence of a source validation code in the header of a packet and routs only those packets that have the source validation code. The validation function after checking the presence of the source validation code, verifies the source validation code with reference to a key server.
