- Abstract
-
Modern enterprise networks are no longer isolated systems with clear security boundaries. With the rise of remote and mobile work, contractors and business partners, network access has become more complex, with users accessing resources from various locations and devices. Even on-site employees are exposed to threats from activities such as Internet use, email, instant messaging, and peer-to-peer networking.
To cope with this diverse range of threats, traditional security measures like intrusion detection, antivirus software, and firewalls are no longer sufficient. Cybersecurity threats have become more sophisticated and targeted, making insider attacks especially damaging. These attacks can result in the loss of intellectual property, disclosure of confidential information, violation of privacy laws, and financial losses, according to a recent cybersecurity survey. Therefore, organizations must adopt a more comprehensive approach to network security, such as implementing Network Access Control (NAC) solutions that can dynamically control network access and enforce security policies.
