- Policy Creation Engine - Create security policies that are right for your organization using pre-built templates and a simple, easy-to-use wizard that guides you through the process.

ForeScout Benefits
Enhance security through role-based network control. ForeScout CounterACT lets you apply network access policies at the user and group level, based on roles defined in your directory. Confidently deploy wireless networks and keep common-area switch ports open without risking network security.
Make your network self-defending. Ensure only authorized devices have network access. Remediate devices that aren't compliant with your security policies. Block attacks within your network.
Ensure compliance. Limit access for non-compliant devices - with out-of-date anti-virus, DLP, encryption, patch level, configuration.
Minimize the risk of data loss. Prevent users from engaging in risky behaviors such as the use of P2P applications, USB thumb drives, and smartphones.
Educate users. Send users notifications when they do something wrong. Obtain written acknowledgement that they understand your security policy.
Stop the rogues. Detect rogue devices, isolate them, and prevent them from accessing your network, essentially "locking down" your network from unauthorized use.
