Overview
NAC Solution Development
ENDFORCE is committed to helping enterprises deploy network access control in a way that leverages their current investments in network hardware and security applications to the fullest while meeting their business needs. Our software-based approach is highly flexible and scalable, and can be adapted to provide network access control across any enterprise.
With ENDFORCE Enterprise’s vendor-neutral approach your company will never be asked to do a wholesale replacement of its network infrastructure or endpoint software. ENDFORCE’s strategy uses a software solution for policy management and endpoint assessment that leverages the current enterprise network for policy enforcement. All security applications and Microsoft operating systems are supported, and these can be easily defined as a part of your endpoint policy.
ENDFORCE Enterprise provides complete coverage for an enterprise’s network access control needs by interacting with various points of enforcement within the network. ENDFORCE Enterprise extends the capabilities of the current network infrastructure as enforcement points (e.g. DHCP servers, 802.1x routers and switches, VPN concentrators), as well as third-party enforcement frameworks, such as Cisco Network Admission Control (CNAC), Microsoft Network Access Protection (NAP), and the Trusted Computing Group’s Trusted Network Connect standard (TNC). Even without network-based enforcement points, ENDFORCE Enterprise can provide network access control protection via the self-quarantine feature built into ENDFORCE Agent.
ENDFORCE Enterprise brings network access control and endpoint policy assessment capabilities regardless of how an endpoint connects to the network. Regardless of the type of user or their connection method, ENDFORCE allows enterprises to ensure compliance with endpoint security policies before granting access.
ENDFORCE provides the flexibility for an enterprise to fully deploy a NAC solution that is customizable to the enterprise environment and business needs, and also the tools to help enterprises develop a solution that fits their needs.
ENDFORCE offers the whitepaper series “Understanding Network Access Control” which helps answer what network access control means to your enterprise and what questions you should be asking vendors. ENDFORCE quickSCAN helps to determine your current security posture, and it can act as a baseline for the success of all future NAC efforts.
