  • Secure enterprise network
    Patent number: 8925036
    Abstract: A method and system enables transparent authentication and transparent policy enforcement in a fabric of a network. In an exemplary embodiment thereof, a packet stream sent from a network host to a network resource is received at a security system. The security system identifies an authentication exchange packet in the packet stream and determines, using the authentication exchange packet and a directory service, a user identity associated with the packet stream and whether the identified user has authorization to access the network resource. A network policy is created that defines whether the user has access to the network resource.
