One of the challenges that administrators are trying to meet all the time, is to ensure the proper functioning of the network, ie to ensure it is accessible, and that the client can connect to it. This task is even more complex when users are required to use laptops in an environment external to the company that no longer subject to security policies and strategies updated. Security on a corporate network, is one of the questions and concerns giving a hard time administrators. How to control network resources? What level of access given to each client? In short, how to protect your network against external threats (viruses, worms, spyware ...) that can be entered by a user of the company? A solution to all these questions are: NAP. NAP - Network Access Protection is one of the most important features of Windows Server 2008. This solution allows the control of client computers on the network. It thus ensures compliance with the policy of uniformity of the computer in a company. NAP adds administrators the ability to define different levels of network access based on compliance rules in software or some settings like the firewall. It is also possible to correct non-compliant systems. System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) is the solution of Directors of the computers offered by Microsoft. It simplifies the deployment of the operating system, applications, task automation, inventory hardware and software, compliance management, and administration of security policies to improve the agility of a organization.
