Abstract

The systems, devices, and methods discussed herein are directed to redirecting mobile traffic of an infected mobile device, or user equipment (UE), to a security network node, which provides a security action for the UE. A mobile session management node may identify the UE as an infected device based on a database maintained at an intelligent redirection node or a security posture indicator received from the UE. The mobile management entity may then create a session with a security network node which redirects mobile traffic of the infected UE to the security network node and provides a security action for the UE.
