Wireless endpoints to be secured in a wireless network context are automatically identified. More specifically, wireless endpoints connecting to a wireless access point are detected. It is determined whether detected endpoints are connecting to the wireless access point to join a wireless network. Wireless access points determined to be connecting to the wireless access point to join a wireless network are automatically identified as endpoints to be managed. Identifying information concerning endpoints to be managed (e.g., MAC addresses) is gleaned, and automatically provided to an endpoint management system.
