Case Study: AbsoluteCare achieves fast, low-cost cloud NAC deployment with Portnox CLEAR

Regional Healthcare Provider Takes Network Access Control to the Cloud with Portnox

AbsoluteCare, a fast-growing regional integrated healthcare provider headquartered in Baltimore, needed a network access control (NAC) solution to meet HITRUST-related customer requirements but found its existing HP Aruba ClearPass costly and overly complex—facing a roughly $30,000 datacenter migration and expensive upgrades. To simplify NAC and avoid hidden professional services fees, AbsoluteCare selected Portnox and its cloud-delivered Portnox CLEAR (with the AgentP add-on).

Portnox deployed Portnox CLEAR with AgentP to provide on‑ and off‑network endpoint posture assessment and automatic device remediation across AbsoluteCare’s wired and wireless networks. The solution was configured in just a few days by the internal admin, eliminating the need for outside consultants, avoiding the sizeable migration/upgrade expense, and delivering easier ongoing management, improved endpoint compliance, and reduced operational overhead.
