Better NAC or Better Personal Security Software?
Mel,
You raise a fundamental and perhaps curious question.
Network Admission Control ("small NAC") is designed to ensure the personal security software operating on a device meets an organization's security policy requirements. The organization decides what type of security (e.g., AV, HIPS) and which vendor products are acceptable and how access privileges will be handled based on what is found. Clearly if there was a single layer or vendor product that was 100% reliable at detecting and blocking malicious activity there would only be a need to verify that it was doing its job.
Some vendors have already added NAC clients to their suites of personal security software and they would likely be interested in your product if you could prove it provided additional or better protection. Dana Hendrickson, security business analyst and publisher, of the Secure Access Central portal.
