FortiNAC is a solution that provides visibility, control, and automated response to anything that connects to the network. FortiNAC provides protection against IoT threats, extends control to third-party network devices, and organizes automated responses to a wide range of network events.

The FortiNAC system performs tasks, crucial for a comprehensive LAN and Wi-Fi access control system.

Visibility

  • Thanks to its deep integration with the access infrastructure, FortiNAC receives information from it about every MAC address connected to any switch port or broadcast SSID of the wireless network.
  • FortiNAC uses more than a dozen methods of scanning and profiling endpoint devices, enabling it to determine which endpoint device it is dealing with.

Control

  • FortiNAC has microsegmentation mechanisms to help control network access for endpoint devices and tools to scan endpoint devices for compliance with company policy.

Automation

  • Thanks to its integration with security systems, FortiNAC can reconfigure the assigned end-device segment in the network based on events recorded in, for example, a Next Generation Firewall or SIEM system.
