Abstract
In various embodiments, a device classification service obtains device telemetry data indicative of declarative attributes of a device in a network and indicative of behavioral attributes of that device. The device classification service labels the device with a device type, based on the device telemetry data. The device classification service detects device type spoofing exhibited by the device using a model that models a relationship between the declarative attributes and the behavioral attributes. The device classification service initiates, based on the device type spoofing, a mitigation action regarding the device.
