Original Abstract Submitted
technologies for encrypting communication links between devices are described. a method includes generating a first initialization vector (iv), from a first subspace of ivs, for a first cryptographic ordered flow, and a second iv, from a second subspace of ivs that are mutually exclusive from the first subspace. the first and second cryptographic ordered flows share a key to secure multipath routing in a fabric between devices. the method sends, to the second device, a first packet for the first cryptographic ordered flow and a second packet for the second cryptographic ordered flow. the first packet includes a first security tag with the first iv and a first payload encrypted using the first iv and a first key. the second packet includes a second security tag with the second iv and a second payload encrypted using the second iv and a second key.
