SECURITY LEVEL AND STATUS EXCHANGE BETWEEN TCP/UDP CLIENT(S) AND SERVER(S) FOR SECURE TRANSACTIONS
First Claim
1. A system, comprising a processor and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processor, the logic being configured to:
- identify a security issue affecting a first peer in one or more secure transmission control protocol/user datagram protocol (TCP/UDP) sessions;
inform a second peer about the security issue using the first peer of the one or more TCP/UDP sessions; and
perform at least one action in response to identifying and/or being informed about the security issue.

Abstract
According to one embodiment, a system includes a processor and logic integrated with and/or executable by the processor, the logic being configured to identify a security issue affecting a first peer in one or more secure transmission control protocol/user datagram protocol (TCR/UDP) sessions, inform a second peer about the security issue using the first peer of the one or more TCP/UDP sessions, and perform at least one action in response to identifying and/or being informed about the security issue. In another embodiment, a method for providing a secure TCP/UDP session includes identifying a security issue affecting a first peer in one or more TCP/UDP sessions, informing a second peer about the security issue using the first peer of the one or more TCP/UDP sessions, and performing at least one action in response to identifying and/or being informed about the security issue.

20. A computer program product for providing a secure transmission control protocol/user datagram protocol (TCP/UDP) session, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code readable/executable by a processor to:
-
identify a security issue affecting a first peer in one or more TCP/UDP sessions; inform a second peer about the security issue using the first peer by sending a packet from the first peer to the second peer, the packet comprising an indication of the security issue in a TCP header of the packet; and perform at least one action to resolve and/or avoid the security issue in response to identifying and/or being informed about the security issue at the first peer and/or the second peer.
