Abstract
Techniques for using an end-to-end policy controller to utilize an inventory of enforcement points to generate a chain of enforcement points having capabilities to enforcement individual operations of an intent-based security policy associated with an entity accessing a resource. A network controller may intelligently split an intent-based security policy and send portions thereof to enforcement points along a path configured for an entity to access a resource. For example, a portion of a security policy corresponding to an operation may be mapped to and implemented by an enforcement point having a capability to perform the operation. Once each operation of a security policy has been mapped to an enforcement point, a chain of enforcement points may be generated.
