Abstract

Cloud security may be provided remotely via a device with network capabilities. Virtual resources managed by the cloud configuration may also be modified and updated based on status changes to the device that may be managed by an administrator. One example may include at least one of associating a virtual resource with a physical device, configuring the virtual resource based on an initial state of the physical device, detecting a change in the initial state of the physical device to a different state of the physical device, and updating the virtual resource based on the different state of the physical device.
