AUTOMATING IOT DEVICE IDENTIFICATION USING STATISTICAL PAYLOAD FINGERPRINTS

Abstract:

Internet of Things (IoT) device classification is disclosed. A byte frequency pattern associated with network traffic of an IoT device is received. The received pattern is used to determine a classification for the IoT device. The classification is provided to a security appliance. The security appliance is configured to apply a policy to the IoT device based at least in part on the classification.
