Abstract
A computer-implemented method for enforcing dynamic network security policies may include (i) monitoring, by a network traffic protection system, network packets transmitted on a network segment, (ii) detecting, by the network traffic protection system, a suspicious transmission of at least one network packet associated with an endpoint computing device connected to the network segment, (iii) modifying, based on the suspicious transmission of the network packet, at least one network security policy for the network segment, and (iv) enforcing, by the network traffic protection system, the modified network security policy for all endpoint computing devices connected to the network segment. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
