Survey: NAC Backlash Growing

Here's something that caught me somewhat unexpectedly.

Tim Greene writes on NetworkWorld:

Network Access Control technologies may be waning as a priority for U.S. businesses because decision makers worry that the technology isn’t quite baked yet, according to an upcoming study by TheInfoPro.“People are taking it off their books for the next 12 months and waiting for it to mature,” says Bill Trussell, managing director of networking for the analyst firm.

Research to be published next month says that of 126 network professionals, 37% say it is very likely or extremely likely they will decide to develop or implement a NAC policy initiative in the next 12 months, down 17% from earlier this year.
