Overview

Portnox CORE is an on-premise Network Access Control (NAC) platform that provides comprehensive visibility and control over all devices connecting to the network. It uses a variety of agentless techniques to discover, profile, and assess devices in real-time across wired, wireless, and VPN networks, enabling automated policy enforcement and risk mitigation.

✨ Key Features

  • Real-time device visibility and profiling
  • Agentless technology
  • Policy-based access control (802.1X or SNMP)
  • Automated compliance and remediation
  • Vendor-agnostic network integration
  • Risk-based access control

🎯 Key Differentiators

  • Software-based deployment (no proprietary hardware appliances).
  • Strong agentless capabilities for device discovery and control.
  • Flexible enforcement options (802.1X, SNMP, etc.).

Unique Value: Delivers powerful on-premise NAC with the simplicity and scalability of a software-based solution, eliminating the need for hardware appliances.

🎯 Use Cases (4)

Gaining complete visibility of all network-connected devices. Enforcing access policies for corporate, BYOD, and IoT devices. Automating endpoint compliance checks. Quarantining or restricting access for non-compliant or risky devices.

✅ Best For

  • Identifying and controlling IoT devices on the network without installing agents.
