Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus related to network security. In one approach, various endpoint devices communicate with a network gateway and/or API mode CASB over one or more networks. All communications by the endpoint devices with remote servers and clouds pass through the network gateway (and/or by cloud service access when using an API mode CASB). The gateway and/or CASB gathers metadata from the endpoint devices and/or network devices. The metadata indicates characteristics of the communications by the endpoint devices on the networks and/or processes running on the endpoint devices. The gateway and/or CASB identifies security risks using at least the metadata, and in response dynamically performs remediation actions for one or more of the networks in real-time to limit or block propagation of a cyber attack associated with one or more of the identified security risks.
