Achieving NAC Now and in the Future: The Role of SSL VPNs
Friday, 8th June 2007
Published by:  NAC is a multifaceted framework to control who and what gets access to network resources, and helps keep malware from entering the enterprise. Today, there are huge challenges to implementing as-yet immature NAC solutions, including complex integration requirements, inadequate inspection capabilities, and weak policy management.
