Trend Micro India has announced Network VirusWall Enforcer, its second-generation enterprise-class Network Access Control (NAC) appliance.
The new product integrates all aspects of NAC with anti-worm capabilities. Its superior automation of the NAC flow, including agent-less remediation, reduces administrative burden and increases user productivity.
The appliance scans devices for security software, critical patches, and current updates. It ensures that all devices - managed or unmanaged, local or remote - comply with security policies before they're granted access to corporate networks. It is easily deployable with minimal IT burden in large enterprise networks. It extends the benefits of Trend Micro Enterprise Protection Strategy, a comprehensive, multi-layered solution framework that protects against threats.
Network VirusWall Enforcer combines granular policy enforcement with automatic worm prevention. It provides immediate protection by filtering network traffic to detect and block worms, bots, and other threats because many worms can spread instantly upon connection, before policy enforcement takes effect.
Malav Patel, Global Product Marketing Manager, Enterprise Product Marketing said, "Network VirusWall Enforcer is a flexible, cutting-edge solution that enhances the benefits of Enterprise Protection Strategy by enforcing security policies, supporting compliance objectives, and enabling swift recovery within quarantined network segments. By managing network access control, the appliance enables enterprise organizations to protect end users - as well as critical IT investments - and ensure business continuity regardless of potential threats."
Niraj Kaushik, Country Manager, Trend Micro India and SAARC, said, "A recent industry study reveals that more than 70% of Indian corporates still do not have a formal corporate security policy. Security compliance is a big issue in organizations today and just having policies is not enough. Organizations also need the ability to enforce those policies and to be able to demonstrate that the enforcement is systemic."
