Compare FortiNAC vs. Multi-Domain Security Management

The rise of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has compelled organizations to enhance their understanding of what connects to their networks. It is crucial for them to identify every user and device accessing their systems. While IoT devices are instrumental in driving digital transformation efforts, leading to greater efficiency, flexibility, and optimization, they come with significant security vulnerabilities due to their emphasis on cost-saving rather than robust protection. FortiNAC offers comprehensive network visibility, allowing organizations to monitor all connections and manage devices and users effectively, including implementing automated, responsive security measures. Network access control solutions are vital for establishing a Zero Trust Access framework, which eliminates implicit trust for users, applications, or devices trying to gain network access. By adopting such a model, IT teams can effortlessly track who and what is accessing their networks, thereby enhancing the safeguarding of corporate assets both within and outside the network perimeter. Additionally, this proactive approach helps organizations adapt to the evolving threat landscape, ensuring a more resilient security posture.

Multi-Domain Security Management enhances security and oversight by dividing security management into various virtual domains. Organizations, regardless of their size, can effortlessly establish virtual domains tailored to geographic locations, business units, or specific security functions, thereby bolstering security and streamlining management processes. This approach facilitates detailed and distinct role-based administration within a multi-tenant security management framework. A unified security management setup governs VPNs, firewalls, intrusion prevention systems, and other protective measures. Administrators can create, monitor, and regulate all network security management domains through a single interface. Additionally, it allows for the centralized management of numerous administrators within the multi-domain security management framework. Administrators can be granted permissions to oversee particular domains or various facets of the multi-domain system, enabling multiple administrators to collaborate across different security management domains simultaneously. This collaborative environment ensures that security measures are effectively maintained and adapted to the evolving needs of the organization.
