GLESEC and Insightix Bring Enterprise and Small-to-Medium Size Organizations Alike with Real-Time Network Knowledge and Security Access Control

GLESEC announces the addition of Network Access Control (NAC) technology to its portfolio of stat-of-the-art security technologies. With the addition of unique offering from Insightix (www.insightix.com) that combines its agentless, real-time element discovery technology with network-wide access controls, GLESEC brings a complete solution that provides organizations with visibility and control over their computer networks.

GLESEC's model provides a turnkey solution combining technology with its professional deployment and on-going support or managed services. This is intended to provide GLESEC Members with a comprehensive solution to their needs for knowing all the elements of a network for inventory/asset management, help-desk and security with network access control. GLESEC Members can focus on the usefulness of the technology while GLESEC focuses on its delivery and operations.

Insightix NAC provides complete contextual IT infrastructure information to serve as the basis of a network access control policy. Insightix NAC constantly monitors the network to provide accurate IT infrastructure information and detect in real-time any new device that connects to the network. Based on the wealth of information discovered on all the IT assets and their associated properties, including element type, MAC address, IP address, operating system, open services, switch and connected switch port, patch information and more, IT professionals can easily baseline their networks and define an enforceable network access control policy. Any device that does not comply with the network access policy is denied connectivity as it attempts to attach itself to the network.

Unlike existing network access control solutions, Insightix NAC simplifies the implementation of network access controls. Insightix NAC does not require network changes, specialized software and hardware or extended deployment efforts. Using Insightix NAC, IT professionals can define and begin enforcing a network access control policy in less then two hours.

"We are very excited to partner with Insightix in a continuous effort to bring the best technologies to the market. GLESEC Member-clients in the US and internationally expect this as a value added service," says Sergio Heker, CEO of GLESEC.
