NAC is Back – How Network Access Control Can Protect Your Remote Devices and Data – Rob Allen – BSW #376
The local network is no more. Neither is the corporate firewall. Users are not only working from the office but also remotely, meaning the network we utilize has quickly become the internet, leaving devices and data vulnerable to cyber threats. But how do we monitor this new, expanded network?
Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how the dissolution of the business perimeter makes network access controls essential to protect your devices and, by extension, your data. Network Access Control helps protect business assets whether employees are in the office or remote. ThreatLocker Network Control provides a direct connection between the client and server, as opposed to a VPN that goes through a central point.
