This disclosure provides for the securitization and/or encryption of software container devices that utilize both a control plane and a trust plane for ensuring that communication signals transmitted from and data residing within these containers are not corruptible. In addition, processors for monitoring statistics regarding data at rest and data on the move associated with creating these secure containers are also included.
A step-by-step walkthrough. It plays on its own, or click the dots and arrows to move through it yourself.
Think of a shipping container that already has its own armored walls and locks welded in, so you do not have to wrap it in security tape at the port. The control plane is the crane operator who moves and stacks containers; the trust plane is a checkpoint every order passes through to get encrypted before it touches a container. Between containers run thousands of separate armored pipes, each with its own lock that keeps changing, so even if a thief picks one lock it changes a second later and every other pipe stays sealed.
