  • Methods and systems for establishment of VPN security policy by SDN application
    Patent number: 11683346
    Abstract: The present application is directed to a non-transitory computer readable medium. The medium includes program instructions that, upon being executed by a processor, effectuate detecting a virtual private network (VPN) provider in a network. The program instructions also effectuate receiving, from the VPN provider, server credentials for a VPN. The program instructions further effectuate generating a security policy based upon a type or pattern of network traffic associated with the VPN. The program instructions even further effectuate converting the security policy to a table interpretable by a node in the network.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: June 20, 2023
    Inventors: Michael Jau Chen, Tavaris Jason Thomas
  • Methods and systems for establishment of security policy between SDN application and SDN controller
    Patent number: 11374978
    Abstract: The present application is directed a computer-implemented methods and systems implementing control policies created or modified by Software Defined Network applications. The control policies can be provided to SDN controllers for implementation.

  • Methods and systems for establishment of VPN security policy by SDN application
    Patent number: 11252195
    Abstract: The present application is directed a computer-implemented methods and systems implementing Virtual Private Network (VPN) policies created or modified by Software Defined Network (SDN) applications. The VPN policies can be provided to SDN controllers for implementation. An SDN application can handle a request to establish a VPN by transmitting the request to a VPN provider, obtaining credentials for the VPN, and providing a security policy to an SDN controller.

  • Methods and systems for SCTP probing
    Patent number: 11096047
    Abstract: The application describes a method for mapping nodes of a network using Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) probing. Packets are sent to open ports of the nodes. Response packets are received from the nodes. Signatures are generated using headers of the response packets. The nodes are classified using the signatures. The node are mapped to elements of the network using the signatures. Rogue devices may be detected based on the mapped nodes.
