Abstract

A system uses automatic feedback and control to secure a network infrastructure by iterative convergence of the network's security structure to meet a security policy. Following initialization, a security feedback control system of the security management system makes dynamic adjustments to the system using bi-directional services that are controlled via policy decision components, without user intervention.
