Device Posture Enhancements

  • File Path - Configure the file path as a criteria to evaluate the compliance of a device (both Windows and macOS). Checks for the presence of a specific file in the specified path. The device must have a file in the specified path to pass the validation.
    For example, you can specify C:\Program Files\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection\MsSense.exe
  • Registry Key - Applies only to Windows devices. You can specify the presence of the registry key, registry value name, and registry value data.
    For example, you can specify Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender for registry key, RemediationExe for value name, and windowsdefender://for registry value data. 

For more information about how to configure device profiles, see configuring Configure Device Profiles.

Cloud Access Control with RBI (Limited Availability)

Cloud Access Control with RBI allows frictionless onboarding of longtail SaaS applications and prevents data exfiltration by implementing CAP policies on an unmanaged device. Subsequently, CAP policies block activities on an unmanaged device, such as uploads, downloads, clipboard copy, clipboard paste, and printing. Cloud applications can be accessed directly from managed devices without any restrictions. For details, see Cloud Access Controls with RBI.
