Abstract
In one implementation, Web-Cache deployed in the Enterprise premises and cloud-based SecaaS are combined such that similar identity-based polices are enforced on both the SecaaS and content delivered from the Web-Cache. This identity-based policy implementation outside the network using SecaaS and within the network for web-cached content provides consistent identity-based security while still providing content to end-users with high performance. Content inspected and/or modified by SecaaS may be cached in the enterprise premises so that requests for content from an origin server decreases, freeing Internet bandwidth and reducing access time. Local caching of streaming content may decrease latency while local implementation of identity-based policy continues to limit the streamed content as appropriate. Local implementation of identity-based policy may reduce the load on SecaaS. Rather than using content delivery networks provided by a service provider for web-content, a cache server within the enterprise is used.
