System and method for automatically regulating messages between networks

A method for automatically regulating messages between networks, the method comprising:

• receiving a message from a remote network to be communicated to a target device of a host network, wherein the remote network has rights to at least statistics and administrative controls on the target device of the host network;
• identifying content within the message;
• determining whether the content is allowable based on a policy, the policy establishing at least:
• an authorized content for messages from the remote network, wherein the authorized content specifies content that may be included in the message to the one or more target device, the authorized content being established by at least one authorized command for the one or more remote networks, and
• a message threshold for the remote network, wherein the respective message thresholds specify at least one limit on how the message determined to have authorized content are communicated;
• analyzing the message to determine whether the message complies with the message threshold for the remote network;
• and
• communicating the message to the target device of the host network in response to determining the content is allowable and the message complies with the message threshold;
• providing, via the target device, at least statistics and administrative controls on the target device to the remote network in response to receiving the message.

A system for regulating messages, the system comprising:

• a plurality of remote networks configured to send and receive messages;
• a profiler configured to regulate and control the messages communicated to a host network from the plurality of remote networks, the profiler comprising:
• a processor for executing a set of instructions;
• and
• a memory for storing the set of instructions, wherein the set of instructions are executed to:
• determine one or more target devices in the host network accessible respectively by one or more of the plurality of remote networks;
• determine authorized content for messages from the one or more remote networks to the one or more target devices respectively, wherein authorized content specifies content that may be included in the messages to the one or more target device, the authorized content being established by at least one authorized command for the one or more remote networks, and a respective message threshold for each of the plurality of remote network, respectively as part of one or more policies, wherein the respective message thresholds specify at least one limit on how the messages determined to have authorized content are communicated;
• analyze the messages to determine whether the messages comply with respective message thresholds for each of the one or more remote networks;
• and
• communicate the messages between the host network and the one or more remote networks in response to compliance with the respective message thresholds and determining that the messages contain authorized content;
• and
• the host network including a plurality of target devices, wherein access to the plurality of target devices is controlled by the one or more policies, and wherein the plurality of target devices of the host network provides at least one of statistics and administrative controls of the host network to the plurality of remote networks in response to messages communicated to the host network.
