    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for using network locality to automatically trigger arbitrary workflows either by assertion or implication. In one embodiment, a communication is received from a client device via an external network host connected to an external network. The client device is configured to initiate the communication to the external network host on a repeated basis. The external network host is unreachable from an internal network. Access by the client device to at least one resource on the internal network is then disabled in response to receiving the communication.
