Abstract

Implementations generally relate methods, systems, and computer readable media for providing threat index based wireless local area networks (WLAN) security and quality of service. In one implementation, a method includes receiving a request from a client device connected to a network via a network link. The method further includes determining a threat index value for the client device. The method further includes determining one or more security policies associated with one or more respective network resources, where each security policy applies one or more rules for allocating one of the network resources. The method further includes determining allocation of one or more of the network resources to the client device based on the one or more security policies and the threat index value.
