Bradford Networks Tapped as a SC Magazine Innovator of the Year for Network Access Control(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) Bradford Networks, a provider of comprehensive network access control (NAC) solutions, was named an SC Magazine Innovator of the Year for its NAC Director solution -- an out-of- band, agent-based access control policy management engine that leverages existing network assets. In the December 2007 issue of the magazine, SC Magazine Technology Editor Peter Stephenson wrote, "Tactically NAC Director pushes access control policy enforcement to the edge of the enterprise where it belongs. Strategically, NAC Director leverages the assets on the network to keep pace with the unique security architecture of each individual enterprise." SC Magazine also applauded NAC Director's ease of use and vision to provide the highly scalable architecture necessary to support the exploding number of wireless devices and networks. From all the products it evaluated during 2007, the magazine selected just 18 SC Magazine Innovators based on importance in the security landscape, comprehensiveness, ongoing product value, and innovation. The first of SC Magazine's yearly Look Ahead sections honors SC Magazine Innovators and covers access control, analysis and testing, perimeter defense, data protection, and security infrastructure tools. The publication looked to help readers answer the question, "If we are going to buy security tools in the next 12 to 18 months, what should we be looking at?" "As an SC Magazine Innovator of the Year, Bradford is honored to be recognized as one of the IT security pioneers working to more holistically safeguard company networks," said Mike Gadoury, Bradford Networks founder and CEO. "We're proud that SC Magazine recognizes the value our automated identity management, end point compliance, and usage policy enforcement capabilities bring to addressing current and future access security challenges."
