The network access control market is estimated to be valued at US$ 4.26 Bn in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 16.96 Bn by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.8% from 2024 to 2031.

Network Access Control (NAC) provides framework and solutions to control access to network resources for diverse users and devices. As enterprises rely heavily on network connectivity for business operations, it is crucial for organizations to ensure only authorized users and devices can access internal network resources. NAC addresses this need by enabling authentication of users and endpoints before granting network access and continuously monitoring devices to detect vulnerabilities or threats. The technology enables secure and policy-based access to networks and helps enforce compliance with organizational security policies. It supports Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives by allowing guest access through quarantine or limited access zones until authentication and policy compliance is validated. NAC solutions are emerging as an integral component of zero trust network security strategies for enterprises.

Market Dynamics:

The global network access control market is driven by factors such as growing security threats from unmanaged devices accessing enterprise networks, stringent compliance mandates, and adoption of mobile and BYOD policies by organizations. However, high initial costs of deployment and maintenance of NAC systems restrain the market growth to some extent. Emergence of cloud-based and software-defined networking solutions is expected to offer opportunities for NAC providers during the forecast period. Managing access from diverse devices on internal networks is challenging for IT teams. Integrating NAC tools with existing security and network infrastructure can help address these operational issues and enable robust policy-driven access control.
