Abstract

An integrated security platform that enables a wide variety of network security elements to share security information in a comprehensive manner so as to provide automation of policy and security enforcement based on intelligence gathered by the different network security elements. The integrated security information platform provides the ability to clarify security intelligence by simplifying the collection and indexing of security information so that the information is visible and accessible to systems wanting to make use of the security information, without requiring all of the information to be co-resident with the infrastructure of the security platform or requiring the various systems to have pair-wise relationships with one another.
