Techniques are disclosed for providing dynamic threat treatment for a software defined networking (SDN) environment. In one example, a software defined networking controller comprises one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to: determine that a security device of a network has detected a threat; apply the threat to a threat treatment model, wherein the threat treatment model is generated based on threat treatment information that includes one or more steps used to resolve previous instances of the threat or previous instances of similar threats; and generate one or more treatment processes to resolve the threat based on the threat treatment model.
