Abstract:
In one embodiment, A tracker computer receives from a first device in a peer-to-peer network that the first device has content for serving. A content request for the content is received from a second device in the peer-to-peer network. The tracker computer routes the content from the first device to the second device through a server. The content routed through the server is inspected for malicious code.
Abstract:
In one implementation, downloading of streaming content using a security as a service (SecaaS) system is more efficient because portions of the streaming content may not be inspected by the SecaaS. A first request to download content from a content provider is received, and a connection is initiated with a security provider, which inspects the first chunk of the content and generates a routing instruction based on the inspection of the first chunk of content. Based on the routing instructions and the inspection of the first chunk, a request for a second chunk of the streaming content is addressed to the content provider. The second chunk of the streaming content, circumvents the SecaaS system.
Abstract:
Various embodiments are disclosed for prioritizing network flows and providing differentiated quality of service in a telecommunications network. In some embodiments, a SecaaS can be utilized to signal flow characteristics of one or more network flows to a connector in a network so that the network can install differentiated quality of service against the one or more network flows based upon the received flow characteristics. Some embodiments enable a connector in a network to act as a PCP client to signal received flow characteristics to an upstream PCP server hosted by an adjacent access network.
