Abstract
Customers of a computing resource service provider may utilize computing resources of the computing resources service provided to implement one or more computer systems. Furthermore, the customer may cause a host-based firewall to be executed by the one or more computer systems. The host-based firewall may collect network traffic information. The customer may then be provided with the network traffic information and be prompted to provide decisions associated with the network traffic information. The decisions may be used to generate a set of rules which may be enforced by the host-based firewall.
