Network Access Protection

Okay kiddo, so you know how we need to make sure our house is safe and secure, right? Well, the same goes for a computer network. We need to make sure that only the right people or devices can access it, so bad guys don't get in and cause problems.

That's where network access protection comes in. It's like a superhero shield that protects our network from harm. It makes sure that only devices with the right credentials, like a username and password, can access the network. Think of it like a secret club where you need a password to get in.

Network access protection can also check the devices before they come in, like checking if they have the latest antivirus software, so no bad bugs or viruses can get in and harm the network. It's like checking to make sure nobody is bringing in dirt from outside into our house.

So, in summary, network access protection makes sure our computer network stays safe by only allowing the right people or devices to come in and checking to make sure they are not bringing any bad things with them. It's like a superhero shield for our network!
