Abstract

A network apparatus receives a first message relating to a transport layer security (TLS) handshake process for an initialization phase of a Quic user datagram protocol (UDP) Internet Connection (QUIC) connection from a client computing device toward a target computing device, wherein the first message of the TLS handshake process comprises at least a connection identifier. The network apparatus generates a second message relating to the TLS handshake process in response to the first message, wherein a cipher suite value of the second message is set to an invalid cipher suite value for the client computing device and wherein the invalid cipher suite value is unsupported by the client computing device, and sends the second message to the client computing device to cause the client computer device to close the QUIC connection.
