Juniper Mist Access Assurance is a cloud-based network access control (NAC) service that ensures secure, Zero Trust access for wired and wireless networks based on user and device identities. It simplifies IT operations by offering a flexible, microservices-based authentication system that enforces policies for guest, IoT, BYOD, and corporate devices. Integrated with Mist AI, it provides end-to-end visibility, identity fingerprinting using X.509 certificates and IdP data, and seamless integration with external directory services (e.g., Google Workspace, Microsoft Azure AD, Okta), PKI, and MDM/UEM platforms. The service supports 802.1X authentication, MAC Address Bypass (MAB), and dynamic policy assignment via VLAN or Group-Based Policy (GBP), delivering low-latency, scalable access control across single or multi-site deployments.
