Learn about Network Access Control as a Service (NACaaS) to increase the value you offer your customers and your own revenue.
In today’s complex cybersecurity environment, protecting your customers’ networks is more challenging than ever. Distributed branch structures, the growing trend of remote work, and the ever-increasing number of IoT devices are rendering traditional security solutions inadequate. As an MSSP, you can stand out by offering flexible, scalable, and easy-to-manage solutions.
This is where S3M Security’s EdgeBox and EdgeConsole technologies come into play. Designed specifically for MSSPs, this platform is the world’s first NAC solution tailored to your needs. Now, you can easily offer NAC-as-a-Service (NACaaS) to your customers, expand your security services, and strengthen your revenue model.

Discover the power of EdgeBox with sample scenarios.
Scenario 1: Multi-Store Retail Chain
Customer Problem: A retail chain has hundreds of stores across the country. Each store has corporate devices, such as cash registers and handheld terminals, as well as a Wi-Fi service for guests. In such a distributed environment, the IT team cannot see which devices are connected to the network and cannot ensure security.
Your solution with EdgeBox:
Install one EdgeBox virtual device in each store. Create common security policies for all stores via the central EdgeConsole. For example: “Only handheld terminals and cash registers in the company inventory should connect to the corporate network.” Manage the guest Wi-Fi network in stores with the Hotspot feature on EdgeBox. Guests verify their identity via SMS or email to access the internet securely. If an unauthorized device attempts to connect to the network in a store, the EdgeBox will immediately isolate the device and send you an instant notification via the EdgeConsole.
Result: Your customer gains complete network visibility and control across all stores. You can manage the entire structure from a central location, providing an efficient and profitable security service.
Scenario 2: Technology Company with Widespread Remote Working
Customer problem: A software company allows most of its employees to work from home or different locations. The company cannot verify if the personal computers accessing corporate resources comply with security standards, such as having up-to-date antivirus software and operating system patches.
Your solution with EdgeBox:
Install EdgeBox at the company’s headquarters or in the cloud infrastructure. Use EdgeConsole to define a “Remote Work” policy. This policy checks if the device attempting to connect to the network has up-to-date antivirus software and if the operating system and disk encryption are up to date. If an employee’s computer does not comply with security standards, it is automatically redirected to a restricted network. On this network, a portal page explaining how the employee can resolve the issues is displayed. After installing the necessary updates, the employee can reconnect to the network and regain full access.
Result: Your customers can be sure who is connected to their network, with which device, and how securely. You, on the other hand, can offer a proactive security service and prevent potential data leaks and cyberattacks.
