InfoExpress Further Enhances NAC Support for BYOD With Support for More Mobile Devices
GlobeNewswire
2012-06-27

      First NAC Vendor to Offer Apps for Major Mobile Device
               Platforms, Including Android and iOS

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., June 27, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- InfoExpress,
an enterprise Network Access Control (NAC) solutions provider for
mobile computing and secure Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) networks,
announced today that its CyberGatekeeper Family of Network Access
Control (NAC) with support for the Google Android operating system is
available to use with tablets and mobile phones. With the addition of
the Android app, InfoExpress now provides NAC for Mac OS X, iOS,
Android, Linux, and Windows endpoints.

With the promise of cost savings, increased employee satisfaction and
productivity gains, the BYOD trend is reaching critical mass. However,
the introduction of hundreds or thousands of unmanaged mobile devices
poses a serious risk to network integrity. To ensure the network is
protected, InfoExpress' CyberGatekeeper NAC provides security for
devices running on today's most popular operating systems.

Leading industry analysts have recently warned that jailbroken
smartphones and tablets significantly increase security risks. With its
open OS approach, Android is particularly susceptible to modification,
also known as rooting. CyberGatekeeper can ensure that devices meet
specific configuration requirements to prevent jailbroken or rooted
devices from entering the network.

CyberGatekeeper NAC provides comprehensive pre-admission endpoint
authentication and post-admission access control on wired and wireless
networks. With the extension of CyberGatekeeper to Android-based
devices, IT administrators can ensure that endpoints failing
authentication are placed into quarantine or have limited access
depending on security policies.

MDM and NAC: A Comprehensive BYOD Security Approach

Many IT organizations are looking at Mobile Device Management (MDM)
products to manage the influx of devices as part of a BYOD policy.
While MDM can effectively manage a system's applications, MDM typically
does not control access to the network. Adding CyberGatekeeper NAC to
MDM improves network security and provides benefits, including endpoint
policy compliance, increased visibility, and role-based access to
prevent unauthorized or non-compliant devices from getting onto the
network.
