Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods are discussed for automatically determining a risk-based focus in determining zero trust network access policy on one or more network elements.
Claims21
A method for securing network access using automatically generated network focus, the method comprising:
- accessing, by a processing resource, at least a first risk score for a first application and a second risk score for a second application, wherein the first risk score indicates a higher risk than the second risk score;
- selecting, by the processing resource, the first application based in part on the first risk score indicating a higher risk than the second risk score;
- and
- securing, by the processing resource, a network from a focus of the first application.
A network securing system, the network securing system comprising:
- a processing resource;
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium, coupled to the processing resource, having stored therein instructions that when executed by the processing resource cause the processing resource to:
- access at least a first risk score for a first application and a second risk score for a second application, wherein the first risk score indicates a higher risk than the second risk score;
- select the first application based in part on the first risk score indicating a higher risk than the second risk score;
- and
- secure a network from a focus of the first application.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium embodying a set of instructions, which when executed by a processing resource, causes the processing resource to:
- access at least a first risk score for a first application and a second risk score for a second application, wherein the first risk score indicates a higher risk than the second risk score;
- select the first application based in part on the first risk score indicating a higher risk than the second risk score;
- and
- secure a network from a focus of the first application.
