Specops Device Trust
Restrict access to posture‑verified devices and enable one‑click remediation.
"Used where organisations need device-based access control and continuous device posture verification to reduce account takeover risk."
Authenticate and verify users and devices at access points and during sessions
Organisations face increased account‑takeover risk when access decisions rely only on user credentials. Devices may be non‑compliant or change posture during use, leaving sessions exposed unless device state is checked at access points and while a session runs.
Specops Device Trust authenticates and verifies both users and devices at access points and continuously during sessions. It enforces device‑based access policies and enables one‑click user remediation so access can be limited to approved, posture‑verified devices and users.
Where Specops Device Trust is used
Gate access at login by requiring device posture verification alongside user authentication. Continuous checks run during sessions to ensure device posture remains acceptable while access persists.
Provide one‑click remediation for device compliance issues so users can address posture problems without a full IT workflow. Use policy controls to limit access to posture‑verified devices and designated users.
Suitable environments
Fits organisations that need device‑based access control and continuous device posture verification across their estate, where reducing account‑takeover risk is a priority.
