Abstract

An apparatus comprises a first processing device, the first processing device comprising a physical hardware controller configured for coupling with a second processing device. The first processing device is configured to identify remote security service instances attached to the second processing device and to initiate, at the first processing device, one or more network emulation modules for the remote security service instances attached to the second processing device that emulate physical network interface devices configured for attachment to the second processing device. The first processing device is also configured to provision the remote security service instances to the second processing device by utilizing hardware resources of the physical hardware controller to analyze network traffic associated with the second processing device, to modify at least a portion of the network traffic, and to provide the modified network traffic to the second processing device via the emulated physical network interface devices.
