Unified Access Control v2.0 - Access Control Without Constraint
In today's enterprise, the network is increasingly becoming the business. Diverse users, including employees, guests, contractors and partners, need access to a myriad of network resources and applications, ranging from simple Internet access to the sensitive internal data. As access has grown, however, so too has the risk in providing it. Enterprise users, business partners or guests with unmanaged or ill managed devices may become unknowingly infected when surfing the Internet or working remotely, then bring those infected devices directly into the network. Users accessing the WAN from within the LAN without any access controls can open the enterprise to a host of threats. Enterprises need to be able to identify these users and control the level of access within the network to the various constituents to meet their security and regulatory compliance requirements. Juniper Networks Unified Access Control solution combines user identity and device security state information with network location information, to create a unique access control policy for each user. The solution can be enabled at Layer 2, using 802.1X, or at Layer 3 using an overlay deployment. UAC 2.0 can also be provisioned in mixed mode, using 802.1X for network admission control and Layer 3 for resource access control.
