Abstract
Various embodiments described herein relate to a virtual network with a cloud-based server, cloud-based firewall and a cloud-based service. The cloud-based server is in communication with a client installed on a gateway to receive an encapsulated IP data packet from one or more applications installed on the gateway. The cloud-based configured to decapsulate the encapsulated IP data packet verify a security certificate based on a first information and configure a cloud-based firewall based on a second information. The cloud-based server is configured to route the one or more IP data packets to the cloud-based firewall for processing each IP data packet based on the second information. In response to the one or more IP data packets being compliant with the first information provided to authenticate the gateway and the second information provided to configure the cloud-based firewall, routing the one or more IP data packets to the cloud-based service.
