Presenting “Why Your NAC Projects Keep Failing: Addressing Products, People, Processes”
Wednesday, Apr 18 | 03:00 p.m. – 03:45 p.m. | Moscone South 207
A vendor-neutral look at resolving the three main pitfalls of NAC projects: products, people and processes. This session will look at architectures that dictate product success or failure in an environment and mapping to today’s products, followed by a look at the processes and people topics that can’t be ignored for successful NAC projects. Presented by a NAC SME based on 10+ years and hundreds of client projects.

Join us with Fortinet for dinner at The Capital City Chop House on January 23rd as we cover a broad range of vital cybersecurity topics such as:
- Why protecting the perimeter is not sufficient
- Micro–segmenting your network to block malicious or unauthorized lateral movement
- Protecting your data from identity thieves and compromised devices
- Avoiding complex deployment and inherent security gaps caused by adding point solutions
- Empowering Zero Trust implementation with threat prevention and centralized security management
- How to determine if zero day threat enabled intruder onto network?
See what the buzz is about! If you haven’t heard of Mist (now a Juniper company) you should join us Tuesday, May 19th for a free half-day bootcamp on the new Mist technology including topics on security, remote access, and more. I’ve highlighted a few of our team’s recommended don’t-miss sessions in bold for you.
Carolina Advanced Digital is a Mist Masters partner. Join us for this half-day bootcamp featuring everything you need to know to break free from the shackles of your legacy network architecture.
- 15 engaging and entertaining workshops
- Jam-packed with FREE GEAR! We’re giving away a free AP + other prizes at every “drill”
- Bonus: Send us your controller config and we’ll send you a Mist Cloud Org with YOUR config replicated, so you can see it in action by the end of the day. You’ll even get a free Mist AP with your newly created Org.* (restrictions apply)
Sessions include
• Transitioning Your Controller Network to cloud? (30min)
• Remote Worker 101 (30min)
• What is the Self-Driving Network? Let’s get real about it! (30min)
• API Automation Customer Examples – Day 0, Day 1, Day 2 (30min)
• Mist Architecture – A behind the scenes look at Mist cloud (30min)
• Marvis Deep Dive & Roadmap (30min)
• How to Measure Wireless Experience w/ Service Levels (30min)
• Wired Experience Service Levels & Roadmap (30min)
• EX ZTP & Configuration with Mist Dashboard (30min)
• Guest Access (15min)
• Policy Configurations and Interoperability with Aruba Clearpass and Cisco ISE (15min)
• Auto provisioning with Mist (15min)
• Bonjour Gateway & Other Exciting Roadmap Elements (15min)
• Wireless IDS / IPS Security (15min)
• AI-Powered Radio Resource Management (15min)
From the team that’s brought you successful NAC implementations for over 15 years! Join us for the second Tech Talk episode with the Carolina Advanced Digital crew. In this episode, Mark and Jen (and Ron if we can coax him) will cover:
- a vendor-neutral look at planning for NAC
- best and common practices plus “gotchas”
- phased approaches for implementing NAC
- vendor comparisons
- a short intro to FortiNAC including a demo
- updates on the product roadmap (at least whatever we can share that’s not NDA).
In future Tech Talks we’ll be covering Aruba’s ClearPass, and vendor-neutral topics of dynamic segmentation and Zero Trust Network architectures. This first NAC session will lay some groundwork for later.
In our third shorter episode, we’ll take a vendor-neutral look at the Wi-Fi technology and trends shaping today and tomorrow. Join Shital and Jen for the latest trends in WiFi 6 (802.11ax), WiFi 6e, cloud-managed solutions, security integrations, CBRS, and more. We’ll talk about what’s real, what’s hype, and how to start planning for what’s on the horizon. Since it’s a shorter session we’ll try to manage Q&A throughout. Hosted by Jennifer Minella.
- 802.11ax/Wi-Fi 6, features and how/when to upgrade
- Update on wired needs for Wi-Fi
- New security standards, WPA3, Open Enhanced, and SAE
- On the horizon Wi-Fi 6e and what you should know
- Non-Wi-Fi wireless, CBRS and Private LTE moving in
- The real scoop on BLE, Location Services, and Contact/Proximity Tracing
- Today’s hot topic- MAC randomization, impact on guest portals, BYOD, and NAC; what behavior OS’s have, and how to work around it
- COVID and Wi-Fi, supporting expansions, pop-ups and more
- What’s new from our partners- Aruba’s announcements of AOS 10, Fortinet and the future of legacy Meru controllers, what’s cooking at Mist
You’re invited to join Carolina Advanced Digital and Zscaler for our “It Starts with Zero” webinar on Thursday. May 19 at 10:00am ET
Zero trust is based on the principle that no entity—user, device, or application—should be inherently trusted. Instead, access is granted using identity and business policy, and it changes based on context. By removing access and security from the constructs of the network, zero trust reduces complexity and increases security.
Join us for a discussion on the topics below:
- Modernizing your network to reduce technical debt and cut networking costs for internet-bound traffic
- Strengthening security posture by implementing a zero trust approach
- Empowering work from anywhere with a better user experience and more visibility
- Securely providing corporate access to any user on any device from any location
- Promoting alignment between IT objectives and business initiatives
