Abstract: Techniques for using a single sign-on (SSO) service as a software defined networking (SDN) controller for a virtual private network environment. The techniques disclosed herein may include receiving, at a first authentication service, first data including a first request to authenticate a user of a client device to access an application. The techniques may also include sending, to the client device, second data representing a second request configured to prompt a second authentication service to authenticate the user of the client device. Additionally, the first authentication service may receive an indication that the user was authenticated by the second authentication service and determine, based at least in part on an attribute associated with at least one of the client device or the application, whether the client device is to access the application using an unsecured connection or, alternatively, access the application using a secured connection.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques including, by a domain name service (DNS), receiving a name resolution request from a client computing device and, by the DNS, providing a nonce to the client computing device, wherein a service is configured to authorize a connection request from the client computing device based at least in part on processing the nonce. This disclosure further describes techniques include a method of validating a connection request from a client computing device, including receiving the connection request, the connection request including a nonce. The techniques further include determining that the nonce is a valid nonce. The techniques further include, based at least in part on determining that the nonce is a valid nonce, authorizing the connection request and disabling the nonce.

Abstract: Operations include transmitting, on behalf of a first application, a first request to a first service provider, the first request requesting first services from the first service provider, intercepting, at a local agent, a first redirect message from the first service provider to an identity provider, receiving an identity provider cookie from the identity provider based on a validation of credentials during the authentication process, storing a copy of the identity provider cookie, transmitting, on behalf of a second application, a second request to a second service provider, the second request requesting second services from the second service provider, intercepting a second redirect message from the second service provider to the identity provider, adding the identity provider cookie to the second redirect message, and receiving validation to access the second service provider from the identity provider based on the identity provider cookie stored by the local agent.

Abstract: Techniques for utilizing an enterprise traffic interception service (TIS) to enforce policies that mandate how clients access software as a service (SaaS) offered by service providers and selectively intercept enterprise network traffic utilizing a domain name service (DNS) and a single sign-on (SSO) service on a per-client per-service basis. The TIS may include a DNS server, an identity provider service, a TLS inspecting proxy, and/or a policy server. The DNS server may handle requests to resolve an address of a service, and identify a policy, stored in the policy server, to redirect the client based on the identity of the client and the service. The identity provider service may later query the policy server during client authorization for the service to verify that the client request is in line with the policy and allow or deny access to the service.

Abstract: An identity provider (IdP) service interoperates with a Virtual Private Network (VPN) client. The IdP service receives a login request originating from the VPN client to establish a VPN tunnel between the VPN client and a VPN host, the login request indicating a user of the VPN client. The IdP service provides a response to the login request. The response includes at least both first information including an indication that the user of the VPN client is an authorized user and second information including an indication of a VPN policy for the VPN tunnel, the VPN policy including a VPN client policy to be utilized during the VPN tunnel by the VPN client and a VPN host policy to be utilized during the VPN tunnel by the VPN host.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a server generates a candidate instantiation of virtual applications among a plurality of hosts in a data center to support a multicast stream. The server provides, to a first set of agents corresponding to a first set of the plurality of hosts, a command to initiate a test multicast stream. The server provides, to a second set of agents corresponding to a second set of the plurality of hosts, a command to join the test multicast stream. The server obtains, from the second set of agents, a message indicating whether the second set of agents received the test multicast stream. If the message indicates that the second set of agents received the test multicast stream, the server causes the virtual applications to be instantiated in accordance with the candidate instantiation of the virtual applications.
