Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed towards systems and methods for validation of a secure socket layer (SSL) certificate of a server for clientless SSL virtual private network (VPN) access. An intermediary device can receive a first request from a client for a clientless SSL VPN connection to a first server. The intermediary device can determine, using a preconfigured policy, that the first server in the first request meets a condition of the preconfigured policy. The intermediary device 801 can perform, responsive to the determination, an action to validate a SSL certificate of the first server using one or more certificate authority (CA) certificate files available to the intermediary device. The one or more CA certificate files can be specified by the preconfigured policy for the action.
Abstract:
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for morphing or regenerating validation information. A client can receive, via a device, an authentication cookie for access to a server. The device may maintain a sequence number and a cryptographic secret. The client may use the cryptographic secret and a cookie engine to generate validation cookie information with an updated sequence number. The client may send the authentication cookie to the device via a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) message to validate the authentication cookie. The client may send the validation cookie information with the updated sequence number to the device via a HTTP message to validate the authentication cookie
Abstract:
Described embodiments provide systems and methods for launching a connection to a resource link from a client device. A device can authenticate the client device for access to a plurality of resource links accessible via one or more servers. The device can provide a list of the plurality of resource links responsive to the authentication, and receive a request from the client device, identifying a first resource link to access. The device can cause first authenticated credentials for the first resource link to be stored on the client device responsive to the request. The first authenticated credentials can correspond to the client device and provide access the first resource link. The client device can be configured to launch a connection to the first resource link from the client device using the first authenticated credentials stored on the client device.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a system and method of managing traffic traversing an intermediary based on a result of end point auditing. An authentication virtual server of an intermediary may determine a result of an end point analysis scan of a client. Responsive to the determination, the traffic management virtual server can obtain the result from the authentication virtual server. Further, the traffic management virtual server may apply the result in one or more traffic management policies to manage network traffic of a connection of the client traversing the intermediary. In some embodiments, the authentication virtual server may receive one or more expressions evaluated by the client. The one or more expressions identifies one or more attributes of the client. The traffic management virtual server can also determine a type of compression or encryption for the connection based on applying the one or more traffic management policies using the result.
Abstract:
In a multi-core system, multiple packet engines across corresponding cores may be working concurrently processing data packets from data flows of SSL VPN sessions. For example, a first core may establish a SSL VPN session with a client. Any one of the other cores, such as a second core, may received packets related to the session owned by the first core. Embodiments of the systems and method described below provide management of IIP addresses for the multi-core/multi-packet engine approach to providing SSL VPN service. In some embodiments, the approach to managing IIP addresses is to have one packet engine on a core act as a master or controller of the IIPs for the remaining packet engines and cores. The packet engines/cores use a protocol for communications regarding IIP management.
Abstract:
In a method and system for routing packets between clients, a packet is received from a first client connected to a secure sockets layer virtual private network (an SSL/VPN) network appliance. An identification is made, responsive to an inspection of the received packet, of i) a type of connection required for transmission of the received packet to a destination address identified by the received packet and ii) a second client connected via an SSL/VPN connection to the SSL/VPN network appliance and associated with the identified destination address. A request is made for establishment by the second client of a connection of the identified type within the SSL/VPN connection. The received packet is transmitted to the second client via the established connection of the identified type.
