Book description
Network access control (NAC) is how you manage network security when
your employees, partners, and guests need to access your network using
laptops and mobile devices.
Network Access Control For Dummies
is where you learn how NAC works, how to implement a program, and how
to take real-world challenges in stride.
You'll learn how to deploy
and maintain NAC in your environment, identify and apply NAC
standards, and extend NAC for greater network security. Along the way
you'll become familiar with what NAC is (and what it isn't) as well as
the key business drivers for deploying NAC.
