What is MetaDefender NAC Cloud?
MetaDefender NAC Cloud is what we call the set a features in MetaDefender IT Access that allow it to fill the role of a NAC. Like MetaDefender NAC on-prem (discussed in docs outside this subtree), MetaDefender NAC Cloud can be used to dynamically assign devices on your network to different VLANs, apply ACLs, or enforce other low-level networking controls based on policies defined in an feature-rich admin console. Unlike the on-premise MetaDefender NAC, though, with MetaDefender NAC Cloud everything is managed from a centralize cloud-native platform maintained by OPSWAT.
Is the on-premise version of MetaDefender NAC going away?
No. With OPSWAT's core mission of "Protecting the Worlds Critical Infrastructure", we understand that cloud-based solutions aren't right for everyone. We're aware that having an on-premise NAC solution running on self-managed infrastructure is a hard requirement for many of our most valued customers. Because of this, OPSWAT always intends to offer an on-premise NAC solution.
