whitepaper Extending PCI Compliance to the Mobile Workforce2008-05-07 Fiberlink Communications
  The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council developed an explicit Data Security Standard (DSS) which outlines the minimum controls necessary to protect the system components that support cardholder data environments. The Council added teeth to the security standard by enforcing it through regular audits and assessments conducted by authorized agencies. The controls outlined in the 12 requirements of PCI DSS specifically address system components - the point-of-sale devices, servers, network, applications and storage - that support cardholder data environments. Consequently, this is the network segment that organizations focus on when devising, implementing, maintaining and assessing their security controls.

whitepaper NAC at the endpoint: Control your network through device compliance2008-05-01 Sophos
  Protecting IT networks used to be a straightforward case of encircling computers and servers with a firewall and ensuring that all traffic passed through just one gateway. However, the increase in mobile workers, numbers and type of device and the amount of non-employees requiring network access, has led to a dissolving of that network perimeter. Access requests can come from anyone and anywhere, which is why organizations are turning to network access control (NAC) technologies. This paper discusses why NAC is important and how it should be implemented on the endpoint for maximum protection.

whitepaper Aquarium Enhances Data Access, Security, and Productivity With New Operating System2008-05-01 Microsoft
  The National Aquarium in Baltimore, one of the premier aquatic resources in the United States, presents 16,000 specimens in an award-winning 250,000-square-foot facility. Limited office space required some staffers to share computers, and lengthy logon/logoff procedures further limited those users' time at the computer. If users didn't log off before leaving their sessions, they ran the risk of exposing confidential data. In addition, the National Aquarium IT staff wanted to reduce the time required to support multiple desktop operating systems. To provide more efficient and secure computer sharing, enhance data security, and reduce support time, the Aquarium decided to move all users to the Windows Vista operating system.
