Abstract
Methods and systems for configuring a common security policy for a plurality of nodes included within an enterprise network. Example methods can include grouping nodes within profiles based on IP address, in addition to concordance data. Additionally, nodes may be added to profiles based on a classification of the node being common to classifications of nodes within the profile. Still further, profiles may be grouped into a solution based at least in part on classification of the profile, in addition to grouping of profiles into solutions based on affinitization using concordance data. The methods described also include determining a common security policy to apply to each of the nodes within the profile.
