Providing anonymous network data to an artificial intelligence model for processing in near-real time

A device, comprising:

• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to:
• receive, from a network device in near-real time, a packet of data associated with network traffic of a network,
• wherein the packet includes privacy-related data and network-related data;
• read the privacy-related data from the packet;
• generate anonymous data based on the privacy-related data of the packet;
• generate a mapping between the anonymous data and the privacy-related data;
• combine the anonymous data and the network-related data of the packet to generate a masked packet;
• provide the masked packet to a server device;
• receive, from the server device, data identifying a recommendation that is based on processing of the masked packet by an artificial intelligence model;
• and
• correlate the data identifying the recommendation with data identifying the network device based on the mapping between the anonymous data and the privacy-related data;
• and
• perform one or more actions based on correlating the data identifying the recommendation with data identifying the network device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive, from a plurality of network devices in near-real time, a plurality of packets of data associated with network traffic of a network,
• wherein the plurality of packets includes privacy-related data and network-related data;
• read the privacy-related data from the plurality of packets;
• generate anonymous data based on the privacy-related data of the plurality of packets;
• generate a mapping between the anonymous data and the privacy-related data;
• combine the anonymous data and the network-related data of the plurality of packets to generate a plurality of masked packets;
• provide the plurality of masked packets to a server device;
• receive, from the server device, data identifying one or more recommendations that are based on the plurality of masked packets being processed by an artificial intelligence model;
• and
• perform one or more actions based on the data identifying the one or more recommendations.
