September 2014 by Marc Jacob
VAD Wick Hill announced that it has been appointed sole UK distributor for macmon secure, a leading German network security manufacturer and a pioneer of intelligent network access control (NAC) solutions. Wick Hill is already the sole German distributor for the vendor and macmon is looking to build UK sales, working with market-making VAD Wick Hill.
Ian Kilpatrick, chairman Wick Hill Group, commented: “Network access control has made a major resurgence and macmon’s new generation solution gives organisations the tools to both secure and innovate their environment. With wireless and mobility impacting all parts of business, NAC is a fundamental requirement for management and compliance.
macmon secure solutions
macmon NAC is the fastest and easiest to implement NAC solution on the market. It protects the network from unauthorised or unsafe devices, and from internal attacks, regardless of whether on the LAN or WLAN, providing centralised control. It is available as a software appliance or as a physical appliance.
With today’s fragmented networks, encompassing BYOD, wireless, smartphones, computerised machinery and other devices, macmon intelligent modular solutions provide the ability to communicate with all manageable switches, giving a complete overview of all devices on the LAN and WLAN.
macmon is vendor independent, so ideal for heterogeneous networks, with a mix of equipment. The solution is both very easy and very fast to implement, offering immediate network transparency, without necessarily changing the existing network infrastructure and without high investment.
macmon provides for tasks ranging from authentication, through MAC addresses, AD-accounts, certificate-based solutions in accordance with IEEE802.1X, to the implementation of security concepts of the Trusted Computing Group.
