Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network receives sensor data from one or more nodes in the network. The device selects a processing mode from among a plurality of processing modes based on a plurality of attributes of the sensor data. The plurality of processing modes comprises a fast data path mode and a slow data path mode. The device encrypts the sensor data using a first encryption mechanism that controls access to the plurality of attributes of the sensor data. The device sends the encrypted sensor data to a cloud-based intermediary based on the selected processing mode for sharing with one or more other devices in one or more other networks.
Abstract:
A method of establishing centralized trust includes, at a policy server having connectivity to a network, establishing a trust relationship with a first enterprise network domain and a second enterprise network domain. One or more criterion from a server in the first enterprise network domain are received by the policy server and a federation relationship is established between at least a portion of the first enterprise network domain and one or more entities in the second enterprise network domain based on the one or more criterion. Based on the federation relationship, the policy server enables the one or more entities in the second enterprise network domain to access the at least a portion of the first enterprise network domain.
Abstract:
Techniques are provided for authenticating a subject of a client device to access a software-as-a-service (SaaS) server. A network access device receives a request from a client device to establish a network session and transfers identity information of the subject, the client device and the network session to a session directory database. A request is sent to access an application on a SaaS server. If it does not contain an identity assertion that identifies the subject, the request is redirected to an identity provider device, to provide identity assertion services to the subject. A network session identifier is inserted into the request by a network access device and the request is forwarded to the identity provider device. The identity provider device uses the network session identifier to query the session directory database for the identity information to be used for a security assertion of the subject to the SaaS server.
