摘要:
A first service node receives a message configured to set up a secure communication session between a client and a server, in which the first service node acts as a proxy. Data packets in the secure communication session are subject to multiple service functions that require decryption of the data packets. A service function chain assigns a service node to each of the service functions. A service header is generated including metadata instructing the service nodes other than the first service node not to act as proxies in the secure communication session. The message and the service header are transmitted to a second service node in the service function chain.

In one implementation, a network device is configured to monitor communications associated with an endpoint and identify domain name service messages in the communications. Subsequently, the network device receives a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) request and determines whether a destination internet protocol (IP) address of the HTTP request is present in or absent from the domain name service messages. When the IP address is absent from the domain name service messages, the HTTP request is modified to trigger increased security.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium for Content Delivery Networks Interconnection (CDNI) request routing using the PCP FLOWDATA option. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request for content, and receiving, from a PCP server, flow characteristics for providing the content, where the PCP server receives the flow characteristics for providing the content from a PCP proxy that receives the flow characteristics from the client device. The method includes transmitting first data for querying the downstream content delivery network (CDN) to determine whether the downstream CDN can provide the content and satisfy the flow characteristics. The method includes receiving a response indicating the ability of the downstream CDN to provide the content and satisfy the flow characteristics, and transmitting second data based on the response, where the client device transmits flow metadata based on the second data to the PCP proxy.

In one implementation, Web-Cache deployed in the Enterprise premises and cloud-based SecaaS are combined such that similar identity-based polices are enforced on both the SecaaS and content delivered from the Web-Cache. This identity-based policy implementation outside the network using SecaaS and within the network for web-cached content provides consistent identity-based security while still providing content to end-users with high performance. Content inspected and/or modified by SecaaS may be cached in the enterprise premises so that requests for content from an origin server decreases, freeing Internet bandwidth and reducing access time. Local caching of streaming content may decrease latency while local implementation of identity-based policy continues to limit the streamed content as appropriate. Local implementation of identity-based policy may reduce the load on SecaaS. Rather than using content delivery networks provided by a service provider for web-content, a cache server within the enterprise is used.

In one implementation, a cloud connector obtains location information for a proxy server of a security as a service (SecaaS) function. The cloud connector receives a content request from a user device for content hosted in a content delivery network (CDN). A domain name service (DNS) request, with location information, is forwarded to a DNS authoritative server. An identification of a downstream CDN server is received from the DNS authoritative server. The identification of the downstream CDN is based on the location information for the proxy server of the SecaaS function. The content is obtained from the downstream CDN server through the proxy server of the SecaaS function.

In one embodiment, first content is served by an application server to a client computer through an Internet service provider network. The first content includes a link to second content on a third-party server. A token request is sent from the third-party server to the application server in response to selection of the link by the client computer. A token is provided to the third-party server by the application server in response to the token request. The token is configured to authorize data flow at a bandwidth for the second content by the Internet service provider network to the client computer. The data flow is authorized based on an agreement for the bandwidth between an operator of the application server and an operator of the Internet service provider network.

In one implementation, identity based security features and policies are applied to endpoint devices behind an intermediary device, such as a network address translation device. The access network switch authenticates an endpoint based on a user identity and a credential. A hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) packet is generated or modified to include the user identity in an inline header. The HTTP packet including the user identity is sent to a policy enforcement device to look up one or more policies for the endpoint. The access switch receives traffic from the policy enforcement device that is filtered according the user identity. Subsequent TCP connections may also include identity information within the TCP USER_HINT option in a synchronization packet thus allowing identity propagation for other applications and protocols.

In one embodiment, a distributed denial of service attack on a network is identified. In response to the distributed denial of service attack, a script to request a short term certificate is executed. The short term certificate is generated by a certificate server and received either directly or indirectly from the certificate server. An instruction to redirect traffic using the short term certificate and private key is sent to a distributed denial of service attack protection service that is operable to filter or otherwise mitigate malicious traffic involved in the distributed denial of service attack.
