Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for partitioning an OS or hypervisor utilized on a computing device from the process of proxy control. For example, a proxy may be installed on a separation kernel or firmware on a computing device that routes all data traffic received via a network connection to a cloud which performs various services such as IP reputation management, URL reputation detection and validation, malicious file filtering through potential malware detection.
