Zusammenfassung:A threat management facility detects a device on an enterprise network and determines whether the device is one of a set of managed devices for the enterprise network. When the device is not one of the set of managed devices, the device may be directed to a portal that manages admission of unrecognized devices onto the enterprise network. Based on a response of the unrecognized device to the portal (e.g., if the unrecognized device does not respond to the portal), the device may be listed on an unclaimed device page published by the portal and accessible to authorized users of the enterprise network. An authorized user may claim the unrecognized device from the unclaimed device page and, in the process, may provide additional information regarding the unrecognized device. Once claimed, the previously unrecognized device may be permitted to communicate over the enterprise network.
