Abstract
In response to communications between one or more given networks and one or more other networks, a network protection appliance discovers one or more computing resources of the one or more given networks from a plurality of protocol layers of the received communications. The network protection appliance also gleans properties of the one or more discovered computing resources of the one or more given networks from the plurality of protocol layers of the received communications. The network protection appliance maps the gleaned properties of the one or more discovered computing resources of the one or more given networks to a plurality of network protection policies. The network protection appliance also determines an applicable network protection policy for processing a corresponding received communication from the mapping of the gleaned properties of the one or more discovered given computing resources of the one or more given networks to the plurality of network protection policies. Thereafter, the network protection appliance applies the applicable network protection policies to the corresponding received communication between a computing resource of a given network and a computing resource of the other network.
