Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for securing communications may include (i) establishing an overlay network within a publicly available on-demand cloud computing platform, the overlay network enabling secure communications between devices by maintaining within the overlay network a services mapping table that defines access rights to at least one of shared data or services, and (ii) transferring data, by the overlay network acting as an intermediary, from a first device that has securely connected to the overlay network to a second device that has securely connected to the overlay network, in accordance with the access rights defined in the services mapping table. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
