This guide shows you how MetaAccess can be easily and seamlessly integrated into HP Aruba ClearPass to provide an initial client validation when authorizing the client (end system) for network access .

By integrating MetaAccess into HP Aruba ClearPass, administrators are able to check remote devices for:

• Vulnerabilities - Detect vulnerabilities on endpoints in installed applications and operating systems.

• Enhanced Compliance - Get greater visibility into the status of installed security applications such as hard disk encryption and system information such as password protection to ensure devices are compliant with existing policies.

• Unwanted Applications - Detect and remove non-compliant or unwanted applications such as peer-to-peer applications from a remote device.

• Advanced Threat Detection - Utilizing two methods of advanced threat detection, MetaAccess helps identify potential threats that existing anti-malware software might not protect against.

• Portable media scanning and access control - MetaAccess protects organizations against threats from portable media on the endpoints, a common attack vector for malware
