Abstract
Methods, apparatus and articles of manufacture to use artificial intelligence to define encryption and security policies in a software defined data center are disclosed. Example apparatus include a language parser to parse a natural language statement into a policy statement that defines a distributed network encryption policy or a distributed network security policy. Example apparatus also include a comparator to compare the policy statement to a set of reference policy templates and a template configurer to select a first policy template from the set of reference policy templates in response to the comparator determining the first policy template corresponds to the policy statement. A policy distributor distributes a policy rule defined by the first policy template for enforcement at network nodes of a software defined data center. The policy rule is a distributed network encryption policy rule or a security policy rule.
