network access control

Data breaches today can cost a company more than dollars and cents - it can mean the end of the company. The cost to recover from an outbreak is high and in some instances, such as client trust, cannot be measured.

It’s no surprise that security protection is rampant….but it is only effective if used. Out of date security protection software neither protects nor secures.

Network Access Control provides a mechanism to monitor the security protection of each and every device connecting to a network to determine if it adheres to the security policies of the enterprise. By ensuring that the security posture of every single user and device is monitored in real time, the threat associated with security incidents can be reduced substantially.

Predicting the potential costs of a data breach can help build the business case for a NAC solution.

Impulse Point has developed a calculator to help measure the Return on Investment for Network Access Control. This tool provides a comprehensive method to quantify the potential cost, and savings, of implementing a network access control solution.

The following calculation is a general example based on the number of endpoints. For a more detailed, custom analysis please contact us at Impulse Point.

   
Number of Endpoints:
  Select from the pull down menu the most appropriate number of endpoint devices, or end users, who can be connected to the network.
Number of Records Impacted by a Data Breach: The number of data records in any particular enterprise is at least two times the number of endpoints.
Number of Users Impacted by a Worm/Virus Outbreak: This number is at least 90 percent of the number of endpoints in the enterprise.
Average Loaded Salary per Hour per User: The average loaded salary rate of an employee includes the cost of benefits, real estate, insurance, travel and other business costs.  Click in the box to manually change the salary rate.
Payback by months: 6
NPV: $ 422.126

what numbers should i use?

number of endpoints

Select from the pull down menu the most appropriate number of endpoint devices, or end users, who can be connected to the network at any given time.

number of records impacted by a data breach

Generally, the number of data records in any particular enterprise is at least two times the number of endpoints. Data records include confidential HR files, payroll data, ERP data and other intellectual property that would be deemed to be “breached” if the information were available in the public domain.

number of users impacted by a worm/virus outbreak

Generally, this number is at least 90 percent of the number of endpoints in the enterprise.

average loaded salary per hour per user

The average loaded salary rate of an employee includes the cost of benefits, real estate, insurance, travel and other business costs.

what exactly is roi?

ROI is the value of an expense or investment…

…or, how long it takes to for the NAC solution to have paid for itself in benefits to the company.

The ROI shown as a result of your calculations is the number of months the NAC solution will pay for itself. The NPV (net present value) is the present value of the annual cash flow minus the initial investment.
