NAC is a system that evaluates the security status of devices connected to the network, determines whether they are suitable, and controls their access to the network. This system checks the compliance of devices connected to the network with security policies and blocks access when necessary.

MSSP (Managed Security Service Provider), consisting of many different security areas, aims to protect the entire security infrastructure of the institution against possible cyber attacks 24×7. With the MSSP service, possible threats are monitored, the entire system and infrastructure is updated against threats, and support is provided for the institution’s compliance with information security policies. In this post, we will review how NAC and MSSP work together and why we should choose MSSP.

NAC and MSSP can work together to improve organizations’ network security. While NAC directly checks the security status of devices connected to the network, MSSP provides a broader scope of security services. When used together, NAC provides network access control and MSSP provides more comprehensive security services, increasing the overall security of the network.

This combined approach strengthens the security of the network in a multi-layered manner. While NAC checks the security status of devices accessing the network, MSSP provides security management and attack detection in a broader area. This allows organizations to be more effective in protecting their networks against a variety of threats.

In conclusion; while this collaboration makes institutions’ networks more secure, it also allows for greater control over devices connected to the network and the effective implementation of security policies.
