Systems, methods, and apparatus for improved application security

A secure computing system, comprising

• a plurality of nodes running applications, wherein each node has a device address and a platform address;
• one or more address tables configured to store a mapping of the platform address and device address of each node in the system;
• and
• a reconfigurator module capable of changing the platform address for one or more nodes in response to a predetermined event in order to prevent access to the node from computing devices outside of the secure computing system.

A secure computing apparatus for reducing the vulnerability of a plurality of application nodes to attack, wherein each node has a platform address and a device address, comprising:

• means for mapping a device address corresponding to a first application node to a first platform address;
• means for detecting a predetermined event within the secure computing system;
• and
• means for remapping the device address corresponding to the first application node to a second platform address in response to the detected event in order to prevent access to the node from computing devices outside of the secure computing system.

A non-transitory, computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform the method of:

• mapping a device address corresponding to a first application node to a first platform address;
• detecting a predetermined event within a secure computing system;
• and
• in response to the detected event, remapping the device address corresponding to the first application node to a second platform address.
