HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager

Aruba ClearPass is our security method for protecting our organization's LAN and Wi-Fi endpoints. ClearPass helped us preserve our endpoints by blocking unwanted visitors or unknown devices connecting to our enterprise network. We are blocking unauthorized access to our enterprise network by applying security policies. Not only LAN devices but also wireless and mobile devices.

• Reduced manual work to check each device before connecting to the network.
• Protect the organization network from attackers and hackers by preventing physical access to the network.
• Reduce time and effort and save extra work required.

ClearPass is used for endpoint management of devices. We're using it to authenticate business owned computers, function as a portal for guest devices and certificate management. We are able to see which device are connecting to the network in real time and troubleshoot devices that aren't able to connect. We are also able to push devices into different wireless roles depending on who is connecting.

• Guest management
• Functions as a NAC
• Reporting

• Support for a large number of users/scaling
• Reliability
• Portal page is easy for users to understand

Aruba ClearPass has become essential for us over the last few years. We use various features that it offers and know there is a lot more that we don't use currently. We use it currently for TACACs and RADIUS central authentication, OnGuard, guest WIFI, central authentication for wireless and more. We've utilised the role based policy management and are continuing to develop it more and more to suit our changing requirements. We've been integrating Aruba ClearPass with more of our other systems for tighter security. It offers security insight and logs that give us greater clarity when troubleshooting and also a peace of mind over security concerns.

• It has freed up at least 25% of administration time
• We have a clearer insight into security management
• It's allowed guest access to become easy and accessible

We use Aruba ClearPass for our wireless and switching infrastructure on both campuses. It has served well in addressing our identity access management needs for authentication, authorization, and accounting needs for our campus community needs. Students, faculty, staff, and guests are provided the correct access needs with the principle of least privileged being applied. After more than 5 years of utilization, Aruba Clearpass still serves our needs.

• Security
• Served the population needs
• Operationally it has performed very well
• Improved audits

Varonis Data Security Platform

It is used in our wired and wireless networks with nac, radius and tacacs features. Within the scope of information security, it is used as RADIUS-NAC with features such as dynamically assigning the devices that come with certificates to the relevant vlan group in wired networks, and restricting their authority with dacl. In addition, tacacs feature is used for user authentication in connection to various network and security products. In the wireless network, it is used to ensure the security of guest and BYOD networks.

• Radius, taccas and nac are the most important features for our institution. It also makes a very important contribution to troubleshooting. For example, which port does a client connect to? It can find us many features such as wireless ip, mac address.

• Set and forget. It made a positive contribution in terms of labor and cost without needing much technical support. Since NAC and TACACS features come together, you can meet your needs with a single license.
• The number of supporting companies may be limited in the country you are affiliated with. Therefore, agreements with third-party companies are expensive and your support requests may take a long time.
