Trusted Network Connect (TNC)

Trusted Network Connect (TNC) is a security framework that helps organizations ensure devices connecting to their network meet certain security standards. It verifies device health, such as updated antivirus software or security configurations, before granting access. Think of it as a security check at the door: only devices that pass the inspection are allowed in, helping protect the network from threats and unauthorized access. TNC uses standardized protocols to create a flexible, consistent way to assess device security across different systems and devices.
