Abstract:
A cloud service access and information gateway receives, from a user device, a request to access a cloud service. The cloud service access and information gateway compares a security status of the user device to a network access control policy for the cloud service. If the security status satisfies a condition of the network access control policy, the cloud service access and information gateway grants the user device access to the cloud service. If the security status does not satisfy the condition of the network access control policy, the cloud service access and information gateway requests an update to the security status of the user device to satisfy the condition.
