McAfee Network Access Control

Protects your network from noncompliant or infected systems

Noncompliant, infected, or misconfigured systems pose security risks and incur costs due to system downtime and restoration. Even one infected host on the network can cause disruptions to network bandwidth or infect other compliant systems. Boost NAC with McAfee Network Security Platform to protect high-risk areas on the network by identifying, quarantining, and remediating any infected device.

Datasheet

Mobility, mergers and acquisitions, and offshore partnerships mean greater flexibility but also increased risk. One noncompliant, infected, or misconfigured laptop on your network can cost you significant time and money: system downtime, loss of reputation, regulatory fines, frustrated customers, and IT support for restoring systems.

With the volume of noncompliant systems on your network growing quickly, it’s no wonder that you have so many concerns when it comes to network access control (NAC). Do users with administrative rights disable protection software before connecting or while connected to your network? Are company laptops likely to miss critical security updates or patches while disconnected from the network? How do you identify, quarantine, and remediate infected systems already on your network? What infrastructure upgrades do you need to deploy NAC?

Traditional network access control (NAC) systems promise to scan devices as they try to log onto a network to test their overall security posture. But enterprises are also looking for NAC protection against hidden attacks by monitoring devices after they’ve been granted access.

What’s the answer? McAfee Network Access Control (MNAC) mitigates risk to corporate assets posed by systems that don't comply with your security policies. It combines powerful yet flexible policy control with a wide range of enforcement methods to protect your network.

Extend the power of NAC with McAfee Network Security Platform to protect remote access, high-risk branch offices, and wireless networks from infected workstations, servers, non-Microsoft Windows machines, or handheld devices. Identify, quarantine, and remediate attack vectors before they spread. The McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator® (ePO™) management console gives you visibility and reporting on PCs used by guests or contractors, so that you can trigger anti-virus protections or automatically deploy an ePO agent to these systems.
