    They're the same thing. Symantec added the "S" for branding purposes.

    NAC = Network Access Control

    SNAC = Symantec Network Access Control

    NAC is a generic term.

    SNAC is Symantec's version of NAC.

    John Both are Network Access Control Application and both  have different features set. It is difficult to  find or provide  the difference between the two.In the market today we have Avenda eTIPS, Enterasys NAC, HP ProCurve Identity Driven Manager, Juniper UAC, and to a lesser extent, Microsoft NAP and Symantec NAC.

    If you have any Question about the Windows NAP , you can check  the

    Hi,

    Symantec Network Access Control protects networks from unauthorized, misconfigured, and infected endpoint computing devices. For example, Symantec Network Access Control can deny network access to the client computers that do not run specific versions of software and signatures. If client computers do not comply, Symantec Network Access Control can quarantine and remediate the computers. For example, if client computers have antivirus definitions that are more than a week old, Symantec Network Access Control can quarantine the computers. Symantec Network Access Control can update the computers with the latest antivirus definitions (remediation), and then permit the computers to access the network.
