Webcast: Achieving NAC Now and in the Future: The Role of SSL VPNs

Overview Network access control (NAC) has come to the forefront of network security. But evolving NAC initiatives are fraught with inadequate integration, inspection, and policy management.

How can your enterprise attain the significant security benefits of NAC today? Find out in this TechRepublic Webcast, sponsored by Aventail and now available on demand. You'll hear from leading network security analyst Mark Bouchard, who discusses:

The challenges of implementing as-yet immature NAC solutions
Why SSL VPNs are the progenitors of the NAC concept and technology
Why SSL VPNs offer an efficient and effective dose of NAC where it is needed most, with far fewer complications
The instrumental role that SSL VPNs will play in the eventual maturation of NAC

You'll also hear from Chris Witeck, Aventail's product marketing director, who explains how Aventail's SSL VPNs:

Provide a single, scalable, and secure gateway for remote access to all your networked resources
Deliver on the future promise of NAC today
Continue to inform the development and maturation of NAC technologies

Hosted by James Hilliard, Moderator for TechRepublic, this Webcast is your chance to learn why mature SSL VPN technology is a solid foundation for both current and future NAC initiatives.
