Re: Registration and Endpoint Security

["Sewell, Michael K." <msewell () OU EDU>]

Shawn,

Regarding Perfigo's product, how happy are you all with this? We're interested in looking at it further but one concern 
we have is with the amount of configuration that appears necessary before the scanning portion of their product can be 
used. It's possible that we've just mis-interpreted the presentation, but it seems as if all that is given is a "shell" 
of sorts (referencing the older network management products) in which considerable configuration has to be done up 
front. Am I off on this?

Any comments welcome,

We are in the process of rolling out Perfigo (SecureSmart, SmartManager, and
CleanMachines) in conjunction with Cisco ACS and 802.1x.

We are looking at a group of products that cover the area of network
registration and endpoint security. The specific products are:

        Perfigo, Inc. - SecureSmart, SmartManager and CleanMachines
        ZoneLabs - Integrity and Integrity Desktop
        Cisco - Cisco Security Agent and CiscoWorks Management Center
        Bradford Software - CampusManager

I know that these products are not exactly apples-to-apples but they do all
deal with endpoint management by providing some level of registration,
scanning, blocking and policy enforcement for wired and wireless clients. If
any one has any feed back on any of these I would love to hear it. Thanks!

On a related note, we are also evaluating the NeoTers SSL VPN appliance for
use by adminstrative users who need access to web services that are behind a
firewall. Again, any comments on this product would be appreciated.
