Abstract
A method includes receiving an indication of at least one detected security issue at a network device. The indication is received at a security manager processor from a security agent. The method includes selecting, via the security manager processor, at least one executable security object responsive to the indication. The security manager processor verifies compatibility between the at least one executable security object, the network device, and communication media. The method also includes sending the at least one executable security object to the network device via the security manager processor to provide a protective security measure to the network device against the at least one detected security issue upon execution of the at least one executable security object.
