Systems and methods directed to an application gateway for security and privacy that supports security and compliance monitoring between production environments and virtual private clouds are described. In examples, the application gateway for security and privacy supports security and compliance logging making such information available to administrators and auditors; accordingly, the administrators and auditors can determine how the application gateway for security and privacy is behaving in a very detailed way. For example, by providing access to security and compliance logs, administrators and auditors can verify that the application gateway is not behaving in a malicious manner, such as but not limited communicating with an unauthorized host. In addition to including a user-friendly management interface that allows a user access to modify existing configurations in real-time, the application gateway for security and privacy may scale in a secure manner to support increasing and decreasing traffic demands.

Multifunctional application gateway for security and privacy

Systems and methods directed to a third-party gateway that controls egress traffic from Internet Data Centers (IDC) and/or Virtual Private Clouds (VPC) are described. When egress traffic reaches the third-party gateway, a forward proxy may obtain a service identified or otherwise associated with the source IP address and port. Once, the service is identified, the third-party gateway may obtain a configuration rule specified by a rule manager to determine if the service is allowed to access the destination host(s). If the destination host is approved for the service, the forward proxy may send the traffic to the internet. If the destination host is not approved for the service, the forward proxy may block or otherwise drop the respective communication. In some examples, one or more auditors or auditing agencies may access essential information from the third-party gateway to view egress traffic logs and verify egress traffic approved destinations.

Third-party gateway for security and privacy

Systems and method directed to providing a framework for a trustworthy and security compliant edge computing infrastructure are described. Such framework allows self-built edge datacenters to continue providing enhanced service quality in regions where user data and user privacy are of top concerns. In examples, the systems and methods may include an edge router configured to route a communication received from a mobile device to a network address translation appliance, the network address translation appliance associates an anonymous internet protocol address with an internet protocol address associated with the mobile device, and provides the request to an edge datacenter. The edge data center may request content and/or services from a technology partner datacenter via an application gateway for security and privacy that is configured to receive the request for content from the edge datacenter and determine if the request for content is associated with user protected information.
