Abstract:
A network security policy may be implemented at network switches as a set of active packet disposition directives. In a dynamically programmable network, the network switches can be dynamically reprogrammed with new packet disposition directives. An event auditor passively monitors network traffic and provides network activity data indicative of network flows to a network privilege manager. The network privilege manager determines a current network context based on the network activity data. In response to the current network context, the network privilege manager selects a security policy and generates one or more flow policy directives in accordance with the selected policy.

Claim (Index 8):
A computing device, comprising:\n one or more processors; and a non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: obtaining data that (i) corresponds to real-time activity on a network and (ii) comprises at least one of data that corresponds to a state of a network flow, data that identifies an acceptable network flow, data that identifies an unacceptable network flow, or data that is associated with an endpoint of a network flow; determining a current network context using at least some of the data; matching a first portion of the current network context to a criterion of a security policy; adjusting a value of an attribute of the security policy based on the data, wherein the value of the attribute identifies a number of network flows or a duration of a network flow; and in response to a second portion of the current network context matching the adjusted value of the attribute, causing execution of the security policy to control traffic over the network.
