Abstract
Systems and methods include obtaining trusted network rules for a plurality of networks, wherein the trusted network rules include whether a network is untrusted or one of a plurality of trusted networks; obtaining policy configurations for each of the trusted network rules, wherein the policy configurations define configurations for a cloud-based system to use with a user device based on a corresponding network where the user device is connected; communicating with the user device and determining which network of the plurality of network the user device is connected; and applying the configurations in the cloud-based system for the user device based on the network the user device is connected. The steps can further include obtaining forwarding policies for each of the plurality of networks; and providing the forwarding policies to a connector application executed on the user device.
