Abstract
Techniques for performing Internet of Things (IoT) device identification are disclosed. Information associated with a network communication of an IoT device is received. A determination of whether the IoT device has been classified has been made. In response to determining that the IoT device has not been classified, a two-part classification process is performed, where a first portion includes an inline classification, and a second portion includes a subsequent verification of the inline classification. A result of the classification process is provided to a security appliance configured to apply a policy to the IoT device.
