Turning network access control at Corvane Industries from monitor mode into enforcement: on 13 October 2026 a contractor's unmanaged laptop plugged into a meeting-room port at the Ravensholt plant landed on the Line 3 supervisory network and stopped the line for 19 hours, because 83% of ports were only monitoring and MAB admitted anything on a spreadsheet; two switch panels show 17% of ports enforcing in October against 89% in May 2027, 85,963 of 96,400 ports against an 85% target; and unknown devices fall from 26,240 to 1,800, live exceptions from 712 to 186, the OT edge reaches 62% and the insurer renews without a sublimit.

NAC Enforcement Transformation Program

A forty-hour Pro-level network access control transformation simulation run on a live NAC transformation command board, where you are Head of Network Security at a global manufacturer with 240 sites; a contractor's unmanaged laptop in a meeting room reaches a production network and stops a line for 19 hours after three years of ‘deployed’ NAC left 83% of ports in monitor mode — and you measure the truth, rebuild identity, tame MAB, reach the OT edge safely, roll out enforcement without stopping the business, price phase 2 at the margin and defend it to the Board.

What you'll learn

  • Measure NAC honestly — enforcement at the port, authorisation, MAB share and unknown devices — and contain a known exposure without disrupting production.
  • Build the identity foundation for enforcement — certificates, identity sources, MAB governance, profiling and posture — and extend it to guests, contractors, personal, headless and OT devices safely.
  • Roll out enforcement in waves within a disruption budget, govern exceptions to expiry, and run NAC as a monitored service with drift control and complete evidence.
  • Price the transformation at the margin, meet insurer and audit expectations with complete attestations, set appetite and accept residuals explicitly, and win a resolution the Board can be held to.
