NAC Solution
Secure your network with MetaAccess NAC (formerly Impulse SafeConnect)
Many organizations are faced with the ever-increasing onslaught of unknown Devices accessing their critical infrastructure. Employees customers contractors guests suppliers and their Devices are all potential threat vectors representing a challenge to implement network security policies without inhibiting business productivity. There is also the daunting task of providing user and Device access/blocked access information to meet regulatory compliance and for security forensics.
NAC Solution Features and Benefits
Know what&rsquos on your network
Agentless Device identification and profiling provides visibility into detailed information for Devices on your network: Username IP address MAC address Role Device Type Location Time and Ownership. MetaAccess NAC uses advanced heuristics and rich pattern analysis for strong Device profiling:
Control IoT or Browser-less Device access
Whether it&rsquos printers and VOIP phones smart Devices like thermostats and lights or OT Devices specific to your industry controlling and monitoring these Devices can be a real challenge. These Devices can represent much of the risk in your environment and many organizations are addressing this issue through network segmentation. Our NAC solution provides a consolidated view of traditional systems mobile and IoT Devices and now operational technology (OT) systems giving you the ability to segment IoT Devices either using ACLs or assignment to a specific VLAN from a single dashboard.
Deep compliance Device check
Whether it&rsquos your organization&rsquos Acceptable Use Policies (AUP) or regulatory requirements SafeConnect ensures Devices on your network adhere and comply accordingly. Windows macOS and mobile Devices are checked with deep Endpoint Assessments prior to granting network access to ensure that the Device adheres to your AUPs and are also checked in real-time as they move across your network.
Authenticate your users
Depending upon your environment you can authenticate your users with multiple methods/protocols. End User AD/LDAP/SAML Authentication prevents unauthorized users from accessing network resources. SafeConnect NAC supports the following authentication types: EAP-PEAP (credential based) EAP-PEAP (machine based) EAP-TLS (certificate based) as well as domain and 802.1X Single Sign-On (SSO).
Secure access for guests vendors and 3rd parties
End User Captive Portal for authentication of BYOD Devices with extensive branding / customization capabilities.
View real-time or historical management reporting
SafeConnect NAC gathers a wealth of real-time and historical context-aware Device information called Contextual Intelligence such as Username IP Address MAC Address Role Location Time Ownership and even Compliance Status. This information allows for more timely and informed security decisions.
