Abstract
Systems and methods include receiving network communication information about hosts in a network and applications executed on the hosts; automatically generating one or more microsegments in the network based on analysis of the obtained network communication information, wherein each microsegment of the one or more microsegments is a grouping of resources including the hosts and the applications executed on the hosts that have rules for network communication; and providing the one or more microsegments to one or more hosts of the hosts, for use by the one or more hosts to allow or block communications locally based on the one or more microsegments. Each of the one or more microsegments can be a grouping of workloads inside a data center.
