Identify and Manage Endpoint Devices Automatically
Cisco NAC Profiler, part of the Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC) product family, dynamically identifies endpoint devices and manages these devices intelligently based on pre-defined security policies. Cisco NAC uses the network infrastructure to enforce security policy compliance on all devices seeking to access network computing resources. With Cisco NAC, IT and security administrators can authenticate, authorize, evaluate, and remediate wired, wireless, and remote users and their machines prior to network access to reduce security risks. Cisco NAC Profiler allows IT and security administrators to:
- Simplify the deployment of Cisco NAC by automating device identification and authentication. Cisco NAC Profiler eases administrative tasks including new devices, device moves, and replacements in a Cisco NAC-enabled network
- Gather endpoint device profiling information and maintain a real-time, contextual inventory of networked devices
- Monitor and manage device behavior anomalies such as port swapping, MAC address spoofing, and profile changes
- Secure all company-owned endpoints, even those devices unaffiliated with a user, such as printers and IP phones
