ARUBA NETWORKS CLEARPASS ACCESS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM NOW FIRST BYOD SOLUTION TO COMBINE NETWORK CONTROL WITH APPLICATION AND DEVICE MANAGEMENT IN A SINGLE PLATFORM
New Aruba WorkSpace Software Eliminates the High Capital and Resource Costs of Disparate BYOD Systems
Aruba Networks, Inc.

With the addition of Aruba WorkSpace, for the first time, Network Access Control (NAC), Mobile Device Management (MDM) and Mobile Application Management (MAM) systems are a part of one solution and work together to secure company data and reduce BYOD helpdesk costs.
Aruba WorkSpace is built on an enterprise network policy system, making it network-fluent. This means higher network priority can be automatically assigned to work applications. In the event an employee’s device connects to an untrusted network, Aruba WorkSpace can automatically establish application-specific VPNs to encrypt traffic and provide uninterrupted access to internal resources.
