Abstract
Embodiments include a network data collection and response system for enhancing security in an enterprise network providing a user-supplied computing device with access to the network. A network data collection and response system tracks network activity of the device and maintains a device inventory recording the device type and configuration information for the device along with a resource utilization profile for the device. The network data collection and response system detects high-risk or unauthorized network activity involving the device through passive monitoring without utilization of a data monitoring agent installed on the device and implements a response action to mitigate the high-risk or unauthorized network.
