Manufacturer usage description (MUD) extensions for secure access service edge (SASE) services
Abstract:
Techniques for associating manufacturer usage description (MUD) security profiles for Internet-of-Things (IoT) device(s) with secure access service edge (SASE) solutions, providing for automated and scalable integration of IoT devices with SASE frameworks. A MUD controller may utilize a MUD uniform resource identifier (URI) emitted by an IoT device to fetch an associated MUD file from a MUD file server associated with a manufacturer of the IoT device. The MUD controller may determine that a security recommendation included in the MUD file is to be implemented by a cloud-based security service provided by the SASE service and cause the IoT device to establish a connection with a secure internet gateway associated with the cloud-based security service. Additionally, or alternatively, the MUD file may include SASE extensions indicating manufacturer recommended cloud-based security services. Further, cloud-based security services may be implemented if local services are unavailable.
