Abstract
Various embodiments provide systems and methods for automatically defining and enforcing network sessions based upon at least four dimensions of segmentation.
Claims20
A method for automatically applying network communication policies, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a processing resource, a four dimensional network session definition representing a network transaction;
- determining, by the processing resource, if the four dimensional network session definition matches a previously classified four dimensional network session definition included in a set of four dimensional network session definition matches and corresponding classifications, wherein the previously classified four dimensional network session definition does not indicate a process to be applied to the present network transaction;
- responsive to that the four dimensional network session definition does not match a previously classified four dimensional network session, indicating a process to be applied to the network transaction allowing the set of four dimensional network session based on a number of previous accesses;
- and
- applying the process to the network transaction.

A system for automatically applying network communication policies, the system comprising:
- a processing resource;
- a non-transient computer readable medium coupled to the processing resource and having stored therein instructions that when executed by the processing resource cause the processing resource to:
- receive a four dimensional network session definition representing a network transaction;
- determine that the four dimensional network session definition matches a previously classified four dimensional network session definition included in a set of four dimensional network session definition matches and corresponding classifications, wherein the previously classified four dimensional network session definition does not indicate a process to be applied to the present network transaction;
- responsive to that the four dimensional network session definition does not match a previously classified four dimensional network session, indicate a process to be applied to the network transaction allowing the set of four dimensional network session based on a number of previous accesses;
- and
- apply the process to the network transaction.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions that when executed by the processing resource cause the processing resource to:
- receive a four dimensional network session definition representing a network transaction;
- determine that the four dimensional network session definition matches a previously classified four dimensional network session definition included in a set of four dimensional network session definition matches and corresponding classifications, wherein the previously classified four dimensional network session definition does not indicate a process to be applied to the present network transaction;
- responsive to that the four dimensional network session definition does not match a previously classified four dimensional network session, indicating a process to be applied to the network transaction allowing the set of four dimensional network session based on a number of previous accesses;
- and
- apply the process to the network transaction.
