ABSTRACT:
Architecture for facilitating access of remote system software functionality by a host machine for the redirection of incoming and/or outgoing host traffic through the remote system for protection services to the host machine. The host machine can gain the benefits of effective protection software such as firewall, intrusion protection software, and anti-malware services, of the remote machine. The host machine can choose to exercise traffic redirection when there is a risk of being compromised, and then revert back to direct communications when the risk has been averted. The host machine takes advantage of the resources available on the remote machine in substantially realtime with minimal disruption to the host and/or the remote machine operations. This facilitates widespread and temporary protection of network systems for a more secure working environment and improved customer experience.
