Zusammenfassung:A method for redirecting data packets includes receiving, by a first virtual ethernet device pair of a computer system having one or more computer processors, at least one data packet, intercepting, by a packet filter deployed by the first virtual ethernet device pair, the at least one data packet, redirecting, by the first virtual ethernet device pair based on the intercepting, the at least one data packet to a second virtual ethernet device pair, executing, by the second virtual ethernet device pair, an express data path data security program on the at least one data packet, and after the express data path security program has been executed on the at least one data packet, redirecting the at least one data packet back to the first virtual ethernet pair. Further disclosed is a computer system and computer program product configured to perform the method.
