Facilitating a secure 3 party network session by a network device

Abstract:

Facilitation of secure network traffic over an application session by an application delivery controller is provided herein. A method for secure network traffic transmission over an application session may include receiving, from a client device, a SYN data packet intended for an application server. The method may continue with determining, based on the SYN data packet, that the client device is a trusted source. The method may further include transmitting, based on the determination that the client device is the trusted source, a SYN/ACK packet to the client device. The SYN/ACK packet may include information for the client device to authenticate the client device to the application server directly as the trusted source.
