Zusammenfassung:A logic device for intercepting a data flow from a network source to a network destination, the logic device comprising: a data store holding a set of compliance rules and corresponding actions; a packet inspector configured to inspect the intercepted data flow and identify from the data store a compliance rule associated with the inspected data flow; and a packet filter configured to when the data flow is identified as being associated with a compliance rule, carry out an action with respect to the data flow corresponding to the compliance rule, wherein the data store comprises an interface configured to receive updates to the compliance rules and corresponding actions in the data store from a control engine, wherein the updates are authenticated using at least one key accessible to the logic device.
