Abstract
Disclosed are various approaches for generating a device posture token corresponding to a client device. The device posture token can be used by a verification computing device to determine whether the client device complies with the security policies of a particular facility.
Claims20
A system for generating a device posture token, comprising:
- at least one computing device comprising a processor and a memory;
- and
- a device token generator executable by the at least one computing device, the device token generator causing the at least one computing device to at least:
- obtain a request for a device posture token associated with a client device;
- determine a device compliance status associated with the client device;
- generate the device posture token, wherein the device compliance status is embedded within the device posture token;
- encrypt the device posture token;
- and
- cause the device posture token to be accessible to the client device.
A method for generating a device posture token, comprising:
- obtaining a request for a device posture token associated with a client device;
- determining a device compliance status associated with the client device;
- generating the device posture token, wherein the device compliance status is embedded within the device posture token;
- encrypting the device posture token;
- and
- transmitting the device posture token to the client device.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising machine-readable instructions for generating a device posture token, wherein when executed by a processor of at least one computing device, the machine-readable instructions cause the at least one computing device to at least:
- obtain a request for a device posture token associated with a client device;
- determine, based upon the request, that the client device is a managed device that is enrolled with a management service;
- determine a device compliance status associated with the client device;
- generate the device posture token, wherein the device compliance status is embedded within the device posture token;
- encrypt the device posture token;
- and
- transmit the device posture token to the client device.
