NETWORK CONFIGURATION ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240333775 titled 'NETWORK CONFIGURATION ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

The abstract describes a system and method for managing policy data within a private network that is partially located within a cloud provider network. The system involves segmenting the network based on policy data, isolating traffic in different geographic regions of the cloud provider network, obtaining metadata for isolated networks, and enabling communication across different regions.

  • The system establishes a first segment within the private network based on policy data.
  • Traffic associated with the first segment is isolated from traffic in other segments in different geographic regions of the cloud provider network.
  • Metadata indicating an isolated network is associated with the first segment is obtained.
  • The system enables communication across different geographic regions over the first segment.

Potential Applications: - Secure data transmission within a private network. - Enhanced network segmentation for improved data protection. - Efficient communication across different geographic regions.

Problems Solved: - Ensuring data security within a private network. - Managing network traffic effectively in a cloud provider environment.

Benefits: - Enhanced data security and privacy. - Improved network performance and efficiency. - Seamless communication across different regions.

Commercial Applications: Title: Secure Network Segmentation Technology for Cloud Environments This technology can be applied in industries such as finance, healthcare, and government where data security and privacy are paramount. It can also be used by cloud service providers to offer enhanced network segmentation services to their clients.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve data security within a private network? - This technology enhances data security by isolating traffic based on policy data and enabling secure communication across different geographic regions. 2. What are the potential applications of this technology in different industries? - This technology can be applied in various industries such as finance, healthcare, and government to ensure secure data transmission and efficient network management.


Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods are provided for obtaining policy data associated with a private network implemented at least partly within a cloud provider network; establishing, based on the policy data, a first segment within the private network, wherein in a first geographic region of the cloud provider network, traffic associated with the first segment is isolated from traffic associated with a second segment of the private network, and wherein in a second geographic region of the cloud provider network, traffic associated with the first segment is isolated from traffic associated with a third segment of the private network; obtaining metadata indicating an isolated network of the cloud provider network is associated with the first segment; and enabling the isolated network to communicate, over the first segment, across the first geographic region and the second geographic region.
