Security fabric for internet of things (IoT)

Abstract:

The present invention relates to methods, systems and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for managing IoT devices by a security fabric. According to one embodiment, an analyzing tier collects data of Internet of Things (IoT) devices from a plurality of data sources and abstracts profiled element baselines (PEBs) of IoT devices of the same type from the data. An executing tier retrieves the PEBs from the analyzing tier and generates security policies for IoT devices of the same type from PEBs. The executing tier controls network traffic of the IoT devices of the private network to comply with the security policies.
