The NAC market is forecasted to grow substantially through 2018, reaching $1.46 billion. Top vendors currently control 70% of the market. Key drivers of NAC adoption include the ability to quarantine endpoints, support for BYOD, malware detection capabilities, ease of use, and integration with other security tools. The financial, government, healthcare, and education sectors account for 80% of NAC sales. NAC solutions must address challenges like interoperability, mobile workforce deployment, scalability, and streamlining IT operations like guest access and device management. The future of NAC involves more cohesive, distributed defenses that seamlessly integrate endpoint and perimeter security.

1. • The NAC market is forecasted to achieve a compounded annual growth rate of 29.5% and reach
$1.46 billion by 2018.
• Gartner estimates in 2015 growth to be conservative at approximately 20%. Cisco, Juniper (now
Pulse Secure) and ForeScout—represent 70% of the NAC market.
Key Market Drivers-

Can I control where they go
Can I shut them off if they misbehave and
find the malware
Can I remove the malware once it has
entered the network.

There are only two types of companies: those that have been hacked and those that will be.
Security should be built in the foundation.
