CounterACT™

Network Access. Controlled.™

CounterACT combines clientless network access control (NAC) and signatureless intrusion prevention to ensure all connecting devices are in compliance with network security policies and are free of worms and self-propagating malware. CounterACT seamlessly integrates into any network environment without requiring costly upgrades or infrastructure changes, and enables enterprises to tailor enforcement actions to match the level of policy violations, eliminating disruptions during device interrogation.

CounterACT solves the complex problem of enterprise-wide network policy enforcement across all devices connected to a network by ensuring that all endpoints are up-to-date with necessary patches, (i.e. Microsoft Security Updates or anti-virus definition files), and are free of unauthorized programs and malware. By detecting and instantly blocking critical threats (fast spreading worms and malware) upon connection, CounterACT allows users to connect to the network while their device is undergoing a deep interrogation, without disruptions or changes in end-user experience.

In addition to traditional security issues, today's enterprises are dealing with the influx of vulnerabilities introduced by contractors, guests and mobile/home employees who are able to bypass physical security and the traditional network security mechanisms designed to prevent non-compliant endpoints from accessing the network. CounterACT addresses this problem by enforcing network security policies across all managed and unmanaged network devices, including desktops and laptops as well as non-OS devices such as VoIP phones, handhelds and network printers, without the need for a software agent of any kind.
