About Safe Access
Using Safe Access, administrators create Access policies that: (1) define which applications and services are permitted and (2) specify the actions to be taken when devices do not comply. Safe Access automatically applies access policies to devices as they log onto the network. Based on test results, devices are either permitted or denied network access or quarantined to a specific part of the network, thus enforcing organizational security standards. Safe Access offers three endpoint testing methods – including agent-less, ActiveX, and agent-based – and five policy enforcement methods – including DHCP (network-based and endpoint-based), in-line, Cisco’s NAC architecture, and 802.1x.
