Abstract
NAC is a solution framework that enables organizations to: 1) Protect the
endpoint 2) Compare endpoints against a predefined organizational policy
before allowing those endpoints on the network, 3) Provide some form of
remediation should an endpoint be seen as out of compliance and 4) Provide
continued policy enforcement the entire time the endpoint is on the network.
Large vendors such as Microsoft and Cisco are leading the charge in this
approach with their Network Admission Control and Network Access Protocol
frameworks respectively, however other vendors have had success with
appliances. Frost & Sullivan analyzes both the appliance and framework
segments of the market.
