As enterprise security continues to evolve, organizations are constantly deploying new technologies and solutions to keep up with changing threats. As our security infrastructures become increasingly complex, integrating security tools becomes paramount for a couple of reasons:
Let’s take a look at how combining access control with endpoint security yields synergies for both technologies.
As a critical piece of a sound network security strategy, network access control (NAC) is the first line of defense in ensuring the right devices and users have access to the right network resources. Access control solutions such as Aruba ClearPass can enforce granular policies to accomplish this goal.
At Aruba, we utilize our 360 Secure Fabric to integrate with other best-of-breed security solutions such as Carbon Black, a leader in endpoint detection and response. This integration allows our joint customers to simplify their security infrastructure, and enables both solutions work better, providing higher levels of security.
Aruba and Carbon Black are excited to announce the new integration between Aruba ClearPass and CB Response.
As CB Response assesses the security posture of each endpoint in the network, ClearPass can take that data – including key endpoint attributes – to make enriched security decisions.
Key endpoint attributes include:
All of these attributes inform the decision of whether a given endpoint should have access to the network.
Based on these attributes, ClearPass can take a number of different actions, from quarantining the device from the network to redirecting the device to a captive portal where the user is limited to only downloading and installing the Carbon Black agent.
Aruba ClearPass utilizes endpoint attributes provided by CB Response to make enforcement decisions
