Description: Device control refers to the management of devices connected to a network to ensure security and compliance. This process involves identifying, authenticating, and authorizing devices, as well as monitoring their activity to prevent unauthorized access and protect the integrity of the network. In any environment, device control is crucial for maintaining information security and preventing data breaches. Antivirus and antimalware solutions play a fundamental role in this context, as they help detect and neutralize threats that may arise from compromised devices. Additionally, device control allows for the establishment of security policies that regulate which devices can connect to the network and under what conditions, contributing to a safer environment. Key features of this control include the ability to conduct device audits, manage software updates, and apply specific security configurations. In a world where mobility and remote work are increasingly common, device control has become essential for protecting both network infrastructure and the sensitive data it handles.
