As part of Frost & Sullivan’s ongoing research on Cybersecurity, we recently concluded research on the Global Network Access Control (NAC) market. NAC products and services allow enterprises to see and control the myriad endpoints that are trying to connect or are already connected to corporate networks. Pre-defined policies, and regular patching updates decline permissions to compromised and rogue devices protect networks. In a business environment where Cybersecurity continues to be one of the highest priorities for all enterprises, the challenges are accentuated by constant changes in regulations, rules, new threats and the lack of resources. This is further exacerbated by the growing number of unprotected connected devices, ports and networks, the gap between legacy infrastructure capabilities and demands made of it, and digital transformation efforts. The Global NAC market has not undergone immense changes, save some mergers and acquisitions in the recent past. This Radar profiles some of the key vendors in the industry. While some of them have a long history in the NAC market and having started with physical appliances are now approaching the more innovative products and services, some others are relatively new. These companies were selected on the basis of their potential to grow and innovate and their response to request for information. Working aggressively to meet NAC challenges of clients, the selected vendors are investing in research and development and work very closely with their clients to ensure that their NAC requirements are met and are future proof. This research will outline: • The top three strategic imperatives affecting industry growth • Global NAC market key growth metrics • Global NAC market growth opportunities • Regional trends in the market The use of automation helps companies enhance NAC capabilities and emergence of solutions strengthened by advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, and machine learning will help them to future proof NAC.
