Abstract: A quality of service traffic steering approach for multi-access edge computing (MEC) environments is disclosed. In an embodiment, a network exposure function (NEF) or similar device (e.g., MEC controller or orchestrator) monitors a quality of service (QoS) of a data session between a user equipment (UE) and an application. The NEF then can determine when the QoS of the data session does not meet a requested service level agreement (SLA). When the SLA is not met, the NEF identifies a MEC host that meets the SLA using a database of MEC applications. Based on the identified MEC host, the NEF re-routes the data session to the MEC host.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for an electronic security framework that is configured to detect anomalies, determine (or capture) forensics for those events, and enable mediation to not only address the activity causing the anomaly, but also perform processing steps to prevent the same or similar type of anomaly from occurring again at a later time. In some embodiments, as network requests are received, the disclosed framework can determine the type of activity triggered, whereby the request (e.g., packets) can be subject to a deep inspection, which can trigger the request and/or its associated device being quarantined and/or prevented from operating on the network entirely should a suspect activity that can predicate an anomaly or set of anomalies be detected. The disclosed systems and methods, therefore, provide an advanced, adaptive security backstop for existing networks in order to maintain the integrity of the operations being performed thereon.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network device may receive an identifier associated with an application server. The network device may associate the identifier with a service profile associated with a network slice based on a quality of service associated with the network slice. The network device may provide, to a device associated with the application server, information indicating that the identifier is associated with the service profile. The network device may receive address information associated with the application server. The network device may associate the address information with the service profile. The network device may provide service profile information to a security device included in a core network to cause the security device to forward traffic transmitted by the application server toward a destination via the network slice. The service profile information may include an identifier associated with the service profile, the identifier, and the address information.
