Network Access Control: Combining Endpoint Protection with Endpoint Compliance

Overview In this TechRepublic Webcast, Tony Brockman, Senior Technical Product Marketing Manager for Symantec, explains why network access control (NAC) is a proven strategy for protecting your enterprise from the ever-more-sophisticated attacks that threaten businesses today.

During this presentation, Brockman explains:

Why corporate networks are continually exposed to security breaches
How regulatory mandates contribute to your information security needs
Why you need a process that authorizes endpoints rather than users

Listen to learn how Symantec Network Access Control can help you find and eliminate vulnerabilities and ensure that required patches, configuration, and protection signatures are in place before an endpoint is allowed to connect to your network.
