Stiennon says NAC is dead - I must be in heaven!

2008-05-02 22:48:36 by HASH0x8472590 in StillSecure, After All These Years
 
...NAC is dead . In fact he says NAC actually never was and never will be. Of course, this is the same Richard Stiennon who said IDS was dead so many years ago. If NAC is only half as alive as IDS has been, I would be very happy. Why do I call Richard a gadfly? Because Richards MO is trying to find what the next hot thing is and to jump on it,...

2008-05-01 23:14:27 by HASH0x8b78dd4 in StillSecure, After All These Years
 
...NAC. It has not lived up to the hype. It is not the promised silver bullet. Some companies in the market went belly up. Yes, yes and true. But as I have said all along this was I think just the natural evolution of a technology as it matures. There was no way it could live up to the over hype that it was saddled with. Those who spoke about it...

2008-06-27 23:36:27 by HASH0x8b0a5c4 in StillSecure, After All These Years
 
...NAC, which finds them finally starting to see some good results. I immediately went to the website of the NAC used car salesman to see if they claimed them as a NAC customer too, but didn't see anything yet. But with those guys you never know Seriously though folks, this story is a classic NAC story. GuideWorks had guests and unmanaged users...

...NAC though we have no such protections built in it seems. It is very much "caveat emptor" - buyer beware. NAC companies can pretty much say what they want, claim what they will. How is a prospective customer supposed to know the truth? Some say you can check references, but even then much like someone applying for a job, do they ever give a...
