Abstract
A request from a user device to register as a secure endpoint device of a secure local area network (LAN) is received by a wireless carrier network. A device type of the user device is identified by the network based on device identification information provided by the user device. A data protection policy that corresponds to the device type of the user device is sent to a secure endpoint application on the user device following a registration of the user device as a secure endpoint device by the network, in which the data protection policy includes an Access Point Name (APN). The user device allocated a network slice of the wireless carrier network that corresponds to the APN to the user device. Subsequently, a data file is transported from the user device to an additional secure endpoint device via the network slice that is allocated to the user device.
