Abstract

A method includes generating, by an internal segmentation orchestrator, a key to cipher/decipher a cryptographic segmentation tag used by an untrusted device, transmitting the key to an external segmentation orchestrator, transmitting the cryptographic segmentation tag to the external segmentation orchestrator and provisioning a trusted network edge with the key and optionally the cryptographic segmentation tag. The method can also include onboarding, based on the key and the cryptographic segmentation tag, the untrusted device, wherein the untrusted device receives the cryptographic segmentation tag from the external segmentation orchestrator.
