The NAC is a corporate network access control solution that provides the IT department with extended visibility of all devices connected to the corporate network. Thanks to this visibility it is possible to perform different actions in an automated way, such as:
- Auto-configuration of network devices (switches, wireless access points, firewalls, etc.) based on the connected device and thanks to device detection and profiling.
- Micro segmentation, restricting network access of connected devices to only the necessary network assets, thanks to dynamic policy control.
- Detection and identification of devices connected to the network, thanks to the high network visibility it provides, the IT department can see all devices and users as they join the corporate network.
