Abstract
Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products comprises an analytic server, which automatically manage network policy. The analytic server determines the electronic communication protocol restrictions including access rules and the connectivity restrictions of electronic devices within a local area network, and segments the local area network into multiple subnetworks that are isolated from each other. The analytic server assigns an electronic device joining the local area network into one of the subnetworks according to the communication protocol determined by the device identifier. The analytic server monitors data traffic of the electronic devices of the local area network. The analytic server transmits an alert notification to a user device when the data traffic does not satisfy the electronic communication protocol restrictions, and updates the electronic communication protocol restrictions in a restriction database with new rules learned from the network.
