  • Patent number: 12634200
    Abstract: Systems and methods for Configuration Management Database (CMDB) based application segmentation include obtaining transactional data for a plurality of users of an enterprise, wherein the transactional data relates to usage of a plurality of applications by the plurality of users; obtaining Configuration Management Database (CMDB) data of the enterprise, wherein the CMDB data includes information about hardware and software assets of the enterprise; matching application information within the transactional data and the CMDB data; and generating one or more application segments based on the matching.

  • Publication number: 20260067280
    Abstract: A cloud-based private access system integrates static CMDB data with real-time access telemetry to automate Zero Trust segmentation. Administrators upload CMDB files (e.g., CSV/JSON) describing applications, FQDNs, IPs, ports, protocols, ownership, and priorities. An analytics management service stages and normalizes the data, retrieves reference domain data from an in-memory cache, and queries a telemetry engine to correlate intended configurations with observed usage. The system detects mismatches, over-permissive wildcard access, and auto-discovers non-listed elements such as subdomains, ports, or protocol combinations. It then generates prioritized recommendations to refine wildcard rules, create explicit allow policies, and merge or split application groups. Administrators review, simulate, and approve updates, enabling phased rollout, rollback, auditing, and continuous policy tuning based on evolving user and application behavior.
