A system executes an authorization process for initiating a session with a computing entity. Executing the authorization process includes determining an identity associated with the computing entity, identifying a current set of access policies associated with the identity, and determining, based on the current set of access policies, a first set of actions that the computing entity is authorized to perform. While executing the session, the system executes a first action in accordance with the current set of access policies. Subsequent to executing the first action, the set of access policies is modified. The system detects an occurrence of a trigger condition, and in response, re-executes the authorization process for the session, including determining, based on the modified set of access policies, a second set of actions the computing entity is authorized to perform that differs from the first set of actions.

Techniques are disclosed for providing high performant packets processing capabilities in a virtualized cloud environment that enhance the scalability and high availability of the packets processing infrastructure. In certain embodiments disclosed herein, the VNICs functionality performed by network virtualization devices (NVDs) is offloaded from the NVDs to a fleet of computers, referred to as VNIC-as-a-Service System (or VNICaaS system). VNICaaS system is configured to provide Virtual Network Interface Cards (VNICs)-related functionality or service for multiple compute instances belonging to multiple tenants or customers of the CSPI. The VNICaaS system is capable of hosting multiple VNICs to process and transmit traffic in a distributed virtualized cloud networks environment. A single VNIC executed by the VNICaaS system can be used to process packets received from multiple compute instances.
