Additional capabilities include the ability for IT to revoke and delete credentials for lost or stolen devices,
and the ability to configure mobile email settings for Exchange ActiveSync and VPN clients on some device
types.
l Customizable visitor management
ClearPass Guest simplifies work flow processes so that receptionists, employees, and other non-IT staff can
create temporary guest accounts for secure Wi-Fi and wired network access. Self-registration allows guests
to create their credentials.
l Device health checks
ClearPass OnGuard, as well as separate OnGuard persistent or dissolvable agents, performs advanced
endpoint posture assessments. Traditional NAC health-check capabilities ensure compliance and network
safeguards before devices connect.
You can use information about endpoint integrity (such as status of anti-virus, firewall, and peer-to-peer
applications) to enhance authorization policies. Automatic remediation services are also available for non-
compliant devices.
