Abstract:
A method includes establishing an application layer transport layer security (ATLS) connection between a network device and a cloud server by sending, from the network device, TLS records in transport protocol (e.g., HTTP) message bodies to the cloud server, the ATLS connection transiting at least one transport layer security (TLS) proxy device, receiving, from the cloud server via the ATLS connection, an identifier for a certificate authority, establishing a connection with the certificate authority associated with the identifier and, in turn, receiving from the certificate authority credentials to access an application service different from the cloud server and the certificate authority, and connecting to the application service using the credentials received from the certificate authority.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, an endpoint elicits a pattern of STUN responses to identify security devices located on a call path. The endpoint then uses address information from the identified security devices to establish an efficient media flow with a remote endpoint. The endpoint can optimize the number of network devices and network paths that process the endpoint's keepalive message. Additionally, the endpoint may request custom inactivity timeouts with each of the identified security devices for reducing bandwidth consumed by keepalive traffic.

Abstract:
In one embodiment, a beacon signal is received from a beacon device. Either a mobile device or a server identifies a beacon authentication value from the beacon signal. Either the mobile device or the server calculates a local verification value from a security algorithm. A comparison of the authentication value to the local verification value is performed, and a location service is provided based on the comparison.
