Modern home and corporate networks are interconnecting many different devices types other than personal computers and printers. It is pretty common to have surveillance cameras or thermometers and control them through cloud-based services. Security-wise this practice can create potential threats when connected devices are not kept updated or if they can freely access the network. This paper describes a novel approach to monitoring and enforcing network policies that takes advantage of techniques such as network discovery and device behaviour fingerprinting, to define per-device/user network policies and enforcing them at the network edge before unwanted traffic enters or leaves the monitored network perimeter.

Abstract
Modern home and corporate networks are interconnecting many different devices types other than personal computers and printers. It is pretty common to have surveillance cameras or thermometers and control them through cloud-based services. Security-wise this practice can create potential threats when connected devices are not kept updated or if they can freely access the network. This paper describes a novel approach to monitoring and enforcing network policies that takes advantage of techniques such as network discovery and device behaviour fingerprinting, to define per-device/user network policies and enforcing them at the network edge before unwanted traffic enters or leaves the monitored network perimeter.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
