Abstract
An example profiler device includes one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to monitor network traffic entering and exiting the protected network zone; identify one or more endpoints that interface with the protected network zone; compare network traffic characteristics of network traffic associated with the endpoints to network traffic characteristics of known device types to determine device types corresponding to the endpoints; assign one or more network policies to the identified endpoints according to the determined device types; and distribute data representing the assigned network policies to a policy enforcement point (PEP) device to cause the PEP device to enforce the network policies on network traffic, associated with the identified endpoints, entering and exiting the protected network zone.
