Abstract
A method for applying a user-specific policy in a network. The method includes identifying a historical portion of network traffic of the network as associated with a user, analyzing, by a computer processor, the historical portion of network traffic to generate a fingerprint of the user, wherein the fingerprint represents characteristics of user activity in the network, identifying, by the computer processor, an ongoing portion of network traffic of the network as associated with the user, analyzing, by the computer processor and based on the fingerprint, the ongoing portion of network traffic to determine a match, wherein the match is determined at a time point within the ongoing portion of network traffic, and applying, in response to determining the match, the user-specific policy to the ongoing portion of network traffic subsequent to the time point.
