Fortinet FortiNAC-CA-500F network management device

Visibility, Zero Trust Access, and Incident Response for Connected Assets and Users

FortiNAC continues to be a cutting-edge network access control solution, enabling
organizations to enforce network access policies and assure adherence to security protocols in
light of increasingly sophisticated threats. It provides a comprehensive snapshot of all devices
and users on the network, facilitating granular control of access based on user roles, device
types, network locations, and now enhanced with the behavioral patterns of devices and
users.
The solution’s capability now extends beyond automated onboarding of new endpoints;
it incorporates real-time threat intelligence and continuous risk assessment of devices,
leveraging machine learning and AI technologies from FortiGuard Services. Given the rising
prominence of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and IoT (Internet of Things), the FortiNAC
continuous monitoring and immediate remediation of non-compliant devices have become
even more crucial.
Moreover, FortiNAC’s integration goes beyond third-party networking and security solutions; it
integrates with a wide range of cloud-based platforms and DevOps tools to ensure seamless
and secure network operations in hybrid IT environments. FortiNAC leverages its integration
with FortiAnalyzer to gain deep insight into network security posture, encompassing real-time
visibility, predictive analytics, and more robust compliance reporting. Organizations can use
FortiNAC to build a solid foundation for a secured network that can more effectively protect
against unauthorized access, potential threats, and increasingly, the insider threats. The net
result aligns with the emerging Zero Trust security model that emphasizes “never trust, always
verify”.
