Are you looking to deploy a Network Access Control solution to secure your network from non-compliant devices and self-propagating malware?
The traditional borders of enterprise networks continue to expand and become more porous with the increasing number of mobile and unmanaged users in the workforce, potentially compromising the security of the enterprise network. However, this is an added threat to the challenges network administrators face to ensure that all connecting network devices are inline with the corporate network security policy. This whitepaper describes how ForeScout's clientless Network Access Control (NAC) solution, CounterACT, provides enterprises with an automated solution that detecs and control of all devices and users connecting to the network by:
- detecting all connecting devices and monitoring them throughout the connection session without using a software client or agent of any kind
- enabling administrators to define and implement network security policy rules, such as criteria a device has to meet in order to connect to the network
- providing a wide range of policy enforcement options to secure the network without impacting user productivity and minimizing network disruptions
- integrating into existing infrastructure (i.e. Cisco only networks) and mixed-vendor network environments (i.e. Cisco, Extreme, Foundry, Juniper, etc.) without extra costs or infrastructure upgrades
- delivering granular network access control policies and enforcement actions to corporate (managed) users and devices as well as network guests and contractors
- defending enterprise networks from infected devices and self-propagating malware
