Abstract
Disclosed are techniques for determining network configurations through machine logic from security certificates of destination computer devices in the network. When a security component of a network receives an incoming data packet sent to a destination computer device in the network, a security certificate is requested from the destination computer device. The security component then configures a set of network rules for forwarding data packets to the destination computer device based on information in the security certificate of the destination computer device. Properties of the incoming data packet are compared to the set of network rules to determine whether to forward the incoming data packet to the destination computer.
