Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to receiving, at an authentication server system, a distributed ledger address transmitted by a client device to identify itself during an authentication process for accessing a network, where the distributed ledger address corresponds to a distributed ledger network; transmitting an authentication challenge message from the authentication server to the client device; in response to transmitting the authentication challenge message from the authentication server to the client device, receiving at the authentication server, a response to the challenge message including a signature; and using at least the distributed ledger network to determine if the signature used to sign the response to the challenge message is associated with the distributed ledger address transmitted by the client device.

Network access authentication and authorization using a blockchain network

A process, system, and non-transient computer readable medium that provides device automation support for the dynamic activation, authentication, and accounting of network access and network access devices while enabling seamless multi-vendor support for change of authorization through multiple network protocols. The process, system, and non-transient computer readable media also provides security threat remediation that can be automated at the device, network access, traffic inspection, and/or threat protection level by taking action on a device by triggering actions in a bidirectional manner.
