For those of you in the area, I will be speaking at the AITP local chapter meeting next Thursday.

Early Network Access Control and endpoint security adopters often ran into complications with these new technologies. Cost, complexity and confusion stymied some deployments. Even though NAC has overcome some of its early issues, the technology can still be complex, requiring organizations to do some careful planning before they embark on deployment. I return to AITP and update them on NAC by giving his perspective about seven common pitfalls, drawn from lessons learned by several organizations that deployed NAC that he profiled in some of his magazine articles earlier this year. David will also provide guidance for security managers about to embark on a NAC evaluation.
