Chapter 49 Endpoint Security 49.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter Use the Configuration > Object > Endpoint Security screens (Section 49.2 on page 775) to create and manage endpoint security objects. 49.1.2 What You Need to Know What Endpoint Security Can Check The settings endpoint security can check vary depending on the OS of the user's computer. Depending on the OS, EPS can check user computers for the following: • Operating System (Windows, Linux, Mac OSX, or others) • Windows version and service pack version • Windows Auto Update setting and installed security patches • Personal firewall installation and activation • Anti-virus installation and activation • Windows registry settings • Processes that the endpoint must execute • Processes that the endpoint cannot execute • The size and version of specific files Multiple Endpoint Security Objects You can configure an authentication policy or SSL VPN policy to use multiple endpoint security objects. This allows checking of computers with different OSs or security settings. When a client attempts to log in, the ZyWALL checks the client's computer against the endpoint security objects one-by-one. The client's computer must match one of the force authentication or SSL VPN policy's endpoint security objects in order to gain access. Requirements User computers must have Sun's Java (Java Runtime Environment or 'JRE') installed and enabled with a minimum version of 1.4. Finding Out More See Section 7.8 on page 144 for an example of how to use endpoint security and authentication policies. 774 ZyWALL USG 2000 User's Guide
