Joel Conover's Current Analysis on NAC

Network Computing published an article by Joel Conover from Current Analysis on the NAC market. I had been briefed by Joel on this data back at Interop in Las Vegas.  Joel had some great data that he had gathered by surveying a group of people actually looking at NAC.  Like most of these analyst reports it is very much framed in the context of what are you going use Cisco NAC, MS NAP or TCG.  The article in Networking Computing doesn't have a lot of the data points Joel actually has gathered, but does a decent job of at least framing the questions. The readers poll exit questions at the back are pretty good.  In looking at the responses though, I was amazed how many people say they are already deploying MS NAP.  Pretty good considering that the product is not released yet. The problem with these types of surveys are they are only as good as the questions asked.
