Systems and methods for managing network traffic from an unknown wireless device on a computer network are presented. A security component residing in a wired area of the computer network is configured to passively monitor network traffic from a wireless area of the computer network for network traffic from an unknown wireless device. Upon detecting network traffic from an unknown wireless device, the security component probes the unknown wireless device to determine at least one characteristic of the wireless device. After probing the device, the security component generates a device profile of the unknown wireless device according to the at least one determined characteristic. Access privileges are determined to give to the unknown wireless device according to the determined profile and activities exhibited by the wireless device. Thereafter, network traffic from the unknown wireless device is permitted to pass to the computer network according to the determined access privileges.
