Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure is directed to managing network traffic in a cloud-based secure access service. In one aspect, a method includes determining, by a controller of a cloud-based secure access service, that data packets from a user device should be dropped, a plurality of user devices, including the user device, being remotely connected to the controller for access to the cloud-based secure access service; determining, by the controller, a type of remote connection through which the user device is connected to the controller, each type of remote connection having a corresponding communication prototype; and transmitting a message, by the controller, to the user device, over a control protocol corresponding to the type of remote connection through which the user device is connected to the controller, the message providing a signal to the user device to drop packets at the user device prior to sending the packets to the controller.
