Labeling network flows according to source applications
Abstract:
An enterprise security system is improved by instrumenting endpoints to explicitly label network flows according to sources of network traffic. When a network message from an endpoint is received at a gateway, firewall, or other network device/service, the network message may be examined to determine the application on the endpoint that originated the request, and this source information may be used to control routing or other handling of the network message.
