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.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer-usable medium are disclosed for, responsive to receipt of traffic from a server to a client, parsing content of the traffic, and injecting additional content into original content of the server response to override an action of the original content, such that when the client executes the content of the traffic the client determines whether the content includes additional content that overrides the action of the original content, and in response to determining that the content includes additional content that overrides the action of the original content, communicates parameters associated with execution of the action to an inspection service to determine if the action is malicious.

Abstract: Processing of data packets within a network element cluster having a plurality of network element nodes is described. The network element cluster has a cluster network address common to said plurality of nodes. Distribution decisions are determined for first data packets, a first data packet being a data packet initiating opening of a packet data connection to said cluster network address, according to predetermined criteria. For each node of the network element cluster those first data packets, which are to be processed in said particular node, are selected according to the distribution decisions. Node-specific lists about opened packet data connections for which a node is responsible are maintained, and using these node-specific lists second data packets, which are data packets relating to any opened packet data connection specified in a node-specific list, are processed.
