San Jose, California. – Jun 14th, 2021 – Genians, the industry pioneer in Zero Trust Network Access Control (ZT-NAC), solutions announced today that it has been named a Representative Vendor in the 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Network Access Control (NAC). According to Gartner, “The NAC market continues to provide visibility into, and access control for, organizations’ on-premises IT infrastructure. However, cyber-physical system (CPS) security needs for IoT and OT devices continue to drive organizations in sectors such as manufacturing, critical infrastructure, and healthcare to consider CPS-centric security technologies to augment NAC.”¹
“Since 2005, Genians has supported many customers in the verticals sensitive to cyber-physical system security risks by leveraging the Genian NAC solutions. Customers happy with Genian’s ability to secure their IT environment without disturbing existing IT/Security operations can safely expand those NAC capabilities to their OT environment using Genians non-disruptive sensing technology. In this way, enterprises can fundamentally and seamlessly rebuild their cybersecurity foundations to secure both IT and OT environments” says Genians’ CEO Dong-Bum Lee.
In addition, Gartner points out, “Organizations are finding that adjacent technologies such as Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) products can enhance their remote and on-premises security capabilities and augment or even replace NAC products for some narrow use cases.”²
“Genian NAC has evolved with Zero Trust NAC for Zero Trust Security initiatives by orchestrating Network Traffic Analysis (NTA), Quality of Service (QoS), IP Mobility by VXLAN, Cloud Firewall, Network Detection & Response (NDR), and Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR). Team Genians has been consolidating the complexity of all these essential features into a single cybersecurity platform, which enables you to collect digital identify attributes from various network-enabled assets, correlate the information, and perform the contextual dynamic access control required to classify, segment, assess, and enforce compliance in the ever-evolving digital war against cybersecurity threats. It can also enhance any enterprise’s Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture,“ notes Kyeyeon Kim, Co-founder/CTO, Genians.
To secure the edge, Genians has delivered enterprise-grade NAC solutions for any size business, from Small-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to larger, more complex critical infrastructure environments with both dynamic deployment (On-prem, Cloud, Hybrid) and affordable pricing options. With ZT-NAC, we can secure end-to-end across various network connections such as VPN, xDSL, and 5G.
Genians offers an early access program to experience Zero Trust NAC features for any organizations currently using Genian NAC. Please contact us at hello@genians.com to learn more.
