I don't know if this helps your security concern but the LISP WG has 
draft-ietf-lisp-crypto that is supported by the LISP encapsulating header. 

VXLAN-GPE also had a goal to make VXLAN and LISP converge on a similar header 
at the same time as having more demux options. This is why, at the same time 
VXLAN-GPE was created, the LISP-GPE header was also  created. 

So if the LISP control-plane is used for these data-planes, then key exchange, 
encryption, and authentication can be supported for all the header formats 
above. 

All that needs to be spec'ed is to allocate 2 bits from the *-GPE headers for a 
key-id field.
