OVERVIEW
What is device posture?
Imagine every device—be it a phone, tablet, or laptop—as a visitor entering your company's premises. Just as you'd want every visitor to meet certain security standards, you'd want every device connecting to your network to adhere to specific security requirements. Device Posture Security isn't just about keeping an eye on these 'digital visitors.' It's about setting a standard, ensuring every device matches up, and taking action if they don't.
At NordLayer, we don't just notify you of any discrepancies with our Device Posture Security rules. We actively ensure that devices not meeting the mark don't gain access. Think of it as a digital doorman for your network, friendly yet vigilant, ensuring that only the compliant get through.
