Does your organization perform endpoint health checks before allowing devices to access production resources?

Explanation

Endpoint health checks verify that devices meet minimum security requirements (such as up-to-date antivirus, patched operating systems, and enabled security controls) before they can connect to production environments. This helps prevent compromised or vulnerable devices from accessing sensitive resources and potentially spreading malware or enabling unauthorized access throughout your network. Evidence could include documentation of your Network Access Control (NAC) solution configuration, screenshots of health check policies, or endpoint compliance reports showing devices that passed or failed health checks before attempting to access production resources.

Implementation Example

Check the cyber health of endpoints before allowing them to access and use production resources

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
