IT professionals are challenged to manage threats to network security caused by viruses, spyware, worms, and other malware. Infected or vulnerable machines should be automatically isolated from the network until the infection is removed or the vulnerability remediated.
Check Point has partnered with leading WLAN vendors to certify and promote joint solutions based on the 802.1X/EAP standard. The joint solutions-comprising WLAN switches and Check Point Integrity endpoint security software-automatically verify compliance with corporate security policy prior to enabling access to the network via the WLAN switches. Non-compliant endpoints are automatically placed in a remediation VLAN, where access is provided to remediation tools while shielding infected endpoints from the production network.
Benefits
- Automated quarantine of infected endpoints
- Automatic enforcement of corporate security standards
- Standards-based approach, enabling deployment across a heterogeneous network
