In less than two years, Network Access Control has risen from a little known acronym to one of IT's highest priority projects. Many organizations are looking at NAC to help them reduce risks from internal threats resulting from unauthorized access to resources as well as the proliferation of spyware, worms and viruses. Now more than 40 companies claim to supply NAC or NAC-aware products, and use one of three standards of competing NAC architectures.

• Describing the alternate architectures and frameworks for NAC
• Tying these architectures to the overall NAC lifecycle
