Abstract: A system for processing data is disclosed that includes a first processor configured to operate one or more algorithms to identify a user identity as a function of user metadata and to provide access to a predetermined network resource using a cloud-based explicit proxy as a function of the user identity and one or more service requests, the first processor configured to operate one or more algorithms to detect a change in the one or more service requests and wherein access to the predetermined network resources using the cloud-based explicit proxy is modified as a function of the detected change in the one or more service requests.

Abstract: A system for providing network data processing, comprising a processor operating one of more algorithms that are configured to interface with one or more clients to receive a client hello data message. A transport layer security extension extraction system operating on the processor and configured to extract an extension from the client hello data message. A transport layer security extension identification system operating on the processor and configured to process the extension from the client hello data message and to identify a data networking session using the extension.
