Addendum to the ProCurve Access Control Security Design Guide

Overview

Overview

Designing an access control solution is an ongoing process, which must be changed over time to protect corporate networks against emerging threats. This process must also be re-evaluated as existing products are enhanced with new features and new products are brought to market. Keeping the process up-to-date allows you to take advantage of the latest technologies so that you can always implement and enforce the tightest security controls for your organization.

Designed to be used in conjunction with the ProCurve Access Control Secu- rity Design Guide, this addendum lists the main enhancements provided by the ProCurve Access Control Solution 2.1. It also describes Microsoft Network Access Protection (NAP), explaining how the ProCurve Access Control Solu- tion integrates with NAP.

Finally, this addendum updates the access control design process to include both the ProCurve Access Control Solution 2.1 and Microsoft NAP: Specifi- cally, it adds a new step to the design process—selecting the option for endpoint integrity—outlining the differences between the ProCurve Network Access Controller (NAC) 800 and Microsoft NAP and providing some guide- lines for choosing between the two. This addendum also updates a step described in the Design Guide—selecting an endpoint integrity deployment method.
