Multi-end landing practices for network access certification system in the Byod scenario

Byod (Bring Your Own Office, self-equipped office) has become the norm in many enterprises and parks where employees use their laptops, mobile phones, tablets to access the office network.

Byod (Bring Your Own Office, self-equipped office) has become the norm in many enterprises and parks, with employees using their laptops, mobile phones, and flatboards to access the office network. The self-portfolio has raised office flexibility and employee satisfaction while also posing a considerable challenge to web access certification systems: the variety of equipment, security baselines and the border between personal equipment and enterprise data.

What's the difficulty of getting a BYOD access?

The first difficulty with the BYOD scene is that it is uncontrollable. The equipment that employees carry on their own is varied, operating systems, patches, security software are different and difficult to manage as a single-distributed office computer. The second problem is that identity and equipment are complex, that one personal device may be both an office computer for staff and also a private software, and that defining its boundaries for accessing corporate resources is a problem. The third is privacy, that personnel can easily conflict with the fact that they have access to BYOD, which does not copy the uniform distribution terminal, and that there must be a differentiated strategy for personal devices.

Device identification and registration: first, get the equipment under control

The first step in BYOD access is to have staff register their own equipment. The network access certification system should support employee self-service registration devices, register information on the type of equipment, operating systems, uses, etc. and bind the equipment to the employee account number. After registration, the system identifies and slotting the equipment once it has been registered, and then automatically recognizes it when it enters. The registration also connects with asset management to form a personal device account. It is essential to control the number of items tied to the account number, prevent an individual from tying up large quantities of equipment or a random switch between multiple units that leads to mismanagement.

Division and decentralization: segregation of personal equipment and enterprise data

The most central issue is to access borders when the BYOD equipment enters the enterprise network. It is reasonable to separate the network subsectors, with personal devices from the independent Byod area, and from core office areas and server areas; in terms of access rights, personal equipment is granted only access to day-to-day office resources, which are strictly limited for sensitive business systems and inner-network core resources."The device is connected."and"What's the access to?"Separately managed, the BYOD equipment is neither office-affected nor sensitive enough.

Security baseline: moderate inspection, hierarchy management

BYOD equipment security management"Moderate"The system of compromise is managed in a hierarchical manner: by incorporating more comprehensive compliance checks and strategic controls on personal equipment that can be installed at Agent, which is subject to inspection; by limiting access to equipment that is not intended to be installed or otherwise controlled, only by opening up low-risk resources. The content and means of checking are friendly to the individual equipment, such as guidance and automation where possible, and reducing the impact on the use of staff.

Empirical design: do not make access an obstacle to office

The BYOD scene is designed to make full use of Seamless Authentication, which allows automatic access after the first registration of the employee equipment and does not require repeated login; priority for light-weight authentication and access control in mobile devices; independent ad hoc account numbering processes for visitors and outsiders.

The network access certification system is in the location of the Byod scene, and at its core:"Equipment register, perimeter segregation, proper screening of staircases and experience priority"Personal equipment is both a productivity tool and a potential risk portal, and access to the system is not about keeping personal equipment out of the door, but about making it safe within controlled borders. Good four things about equipment, privileges, inspection, and experience, so that BYOD can truly become an instrument for efficiency rather than a burden on security management.
