Abstract

In one implementation, downloading of streaming content using a security as a service (SecaaS) system is more efficient because portions of the streaming content may not be inspected by the SecaaS. A first request to download content from a content provider is received, and a connection is initiated with a security provider, which inspects the first chunk of the content and generates a routing instruction based on the inspection of the first chunk of content. Based on the routing instructions and the inspection of the first chunk, a request for a second chunk of the streaming content is addressed to the content provider. The second chunk of the streaming content, circumvents the SecaaS system.
