Abstract
An approach is provided for service provider controlled communication security. A security platform receives a connection request from a client device. The security platform determines context information associated with the device, access network, a user of the device, or a combination thereof, and then processes and/or facilitates a processing of the context information to determine one or more encryption ciphers to offer for the session. Next, the security platform causes, at least in part, establishment of the connection request using, at least in part, the one of the offered encryption ciphers.
