Abstract
Implementation(s) for multi-factor network segmentation are described. A plurality of packets at a higher layer of a network stack is processed, where at least one packet of the plurality of packets was previously determined, as part of processing the at least one packet at lower layers of the network stack, to be authorized to be processed by the higher layer. Specifically, responsive to successful authentication of a cryptographic certificate received during the handshake process, a second service is identified from the cryptographic certificate. It is determined, based on a security policy, that the second service is authorized to access the first service. Responsive to the determination, a configuration is caused such that packets sent using the source address are now authorized to be processed by the higher layer.
