Before a device
joins the network
Sygate developed software that helped organisations assess the security of devices connecting to their networks and apply access policies.
Devices can differ in software version, configuration and security status. Endpoint compliance brings those conditions into a network access decision, alongside the user’s identity and credentials.
Endpoint compliance adds the state of a device to decisions about network admission.
Symantec’s acquisition
Symantec acquired Sygate to extend its endpoint compliance and protection offering. The acquisition brought device assessment and network access decisions into Symantec’s enterprise security portfolio.
