Portnox CLEAR overview

What is Portnox CLEAR?

Portnox CLEAR is the only cloud-native network access control (NAC) solution that unifies essential network and endpoint security capabilities: device discovery, network authentication, access control, network hardware administration, risk mitigation and compliance enforcement. As a cloud service, Portnox CLEAR eliminates the need for on-going maintenance such as upgrades and patches and requires no on-site appliances. As such, the platform is vendor agnostic and can be easily deployed, scaled and managed by lean, resource-constrained IT teams across any corporate network - no matter how complex.

Hundreds of companies have leveraged Portnox’s award-winning security products to enforce powerful network access control, endpoint risk monitoring and remediation policies to strengthen their organizational security posture. By eliminating the need for any on-premises footprint common among traditional information security systems, Portnox allows companies - no matter their size, geo-distribution, or networking architecture - to deploy, scale, enforce and maintain these security policies with unprecedented ease.

“The solution is so simple to work with that we figured out 90% of it prior to our onboarding, which by the way was still very helpful.”

National IT Director

Cons
“The downside of Portnox CLEAR is the very limited monitoring tools, that are essential for managing some aspects of the network. It also is on the higher pricing range.”
