Abstract
The present disclosure relates to securing workloads of a network by identifying compromised elements in communication with the network and preventing their access to network resources. In one aspect, a method includes monitoring network traffic at network elements of a network; detecting a compromised element in communication with one or more of the network elements, the compromised element being associated with at least one network threat; and based on a defined network policy, applying one of a number of different access prevention schemes to the compromised element to prevent access to the network by the compromised element.
