6 New Ways to Validate Device Posture

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare for Teams has introduced new device-based rules, allowing administrators to create rules based on several factors about the device, such as its OS, patch status, and domain join or disk encryption status. This enhances their existing Zero Trust model by considering not only the user's identity but also the security posture of the device they are connecting from. The new features cover a blind spot for applications and data, ensuring that users can access resources based on multiple factors with per-resource granularity. Six additional posture types have been added to improve device rule configuration. These enhancements aim to provide more comprehensive control over user access in a Zero Trust environment.
