Compare Arista NDR vs. Aruba ClearPass

In today's digital landscape, adopting a zero trust networking strategy is essential for organizations aiming to establish a strong cybersecurity framework. This approach emphasizes the need for complete oversight and control over every device, application, or user accessing enterprise resources. Arista’s principles of zero trust networking, aligned with NIST 800-207 guidelines, enable clients to tackle these challenges through three foundational elements: visibility, ongoing diagnostics, and enforcement mechanisms. The Arista NDR platform provides continuous diagnostics across the entire enterprise threat landscape, analyzing vast amounts of data, detecting anomalies, and responding to threats in mere seconds. Unlike traditional security measures, the Arista solution is engineered to replicate the workings of the human brain, allowing it to identify malicious activity and adapt over time. This innovative design enhances the ability of security professionals to gain deeper insights into existing threats and formulate effective response strategies. As cyber threats evolve, leveraging such advanced technologies becomes increasingly critical for maintaining organizational security.
