Start-ups look to horn in on net control

This week a start-up called Nevis is scheduled to announce its alternative, two network devices that enforce policies by allowing access to authorized resources, denying it to unauthorized resources or shuttling a non-compliant machine to a quarantined network.
This is similar to the approach taken by competitors ConSentry Networks and Vernier Networks. All three vendors' appliances sit between LAN access switches and LAN distribution switches to exert control over individual access switches, so if a desktop starts misbehaving, it can be isolated without affecting an entire LAN segment. Nevis' LANenforcer gear can serve as the access switch and provide per-port control of security policies.
