Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for configuring and executing per-service TLS settings in a forward proxy. In examples, a proxy device receives a connection request from a client device to access a service. The proxy device identifies service connection information included in the connection request and selects a connection scheme for connecting to the service. The service connection information is compared to a static mapping of connection data in the connection scheme. If the service connection information matches the static mapping of connection data, a TLS type is determined for the connection request. If the service connection information does not match the static mapping of connection information, the service connection information is compared to a dynamic mapping of session information. Based on the comparison of the service connection information to the dynamic mapping of session information, a TLS type is determined for the connection request.

Framework for configurable per-service security settings in a forward proxy

The disclosure herein describes securing access to a service resource within a security boundary. A security gateway instance receives a request from an edge deployment outside the security boundary. The request includes identity data identifying the edge deployment. The identity data is validated based on allowed identity data of the security gateway instance and based on a validation handler associated with the service resource. Based on validating the identity data and validating the request, the identity data is transformed using security data specific to the security gateway instance. The transformed identity data indicates the request has been validated by the security gateway instance. Based on transforming the identity data of the request, the transformed identity data and the request are forwarded to the service resource via a network link within the security boundary, wherein the service resource is configured to process the request based on identifying the transformed identity data.
