The Cloud Gateway is at the heart of many of Splunk’s most exciting products: Mobile, AR, NLP. It facilitates the communication from your iOS, Android, and AppleTV devices with an on-premise Splunk instance without having to set up a VPN or manage firewall rules. The connection is encrypted end to end, so even if Cloud Gateway was compromised your data would still be secure. In this session we’re going to share how Cloud Gateway provides these guarantees by doing a deep dive into the encryption used, the device authentication process, and the flow of a message from a mobile device to a Splunk instance and back again. Finally, we’re going to be talking about some exciting features rolling out to Cloud Gateway in the coming year.
