> Portnox Clear is a cloud-based network access control solution that helps businesses monitor endpoint risks, detect compromised devices, and automate mitigation to high-risk devices. It allows staff members to configure essential security policies like two-factor authentication and define access control policies for wireless, wired and VPN connections.  Portnox Clear is used across a wide variety of industries such as in banking, defense, biotech, engineering, healthcare, and legal services.

Portnox Clear enables IT professionals to set up role-based access, so only those who need access have access and guest accounts stay out of confidential company resources. The group-level policies allow administrators to create risk policies for multiple users and devices from within a centralized platform. Additionally, administrators can not only monitor device risks based on several custom criteria, such as encryption, location, firewall, certificates, updates and more, but they can automate mitigation of risk such as updating the firewall or uninstalling a risky application.

Portnox Clear is vendor agnostic, so it works with your existing network infrastructure.  It also seamlessly integrates with several essential technology solutions such as MDM, AD,  SIEM, and many more.
