Abstract: Techniques for virtual private network (VPN) access, which is based on client workstation security compliance, are provided. When a user successfully logs into a secure network, client integrity checks are processed on a client workstation of the user to gather configuration information related to a processing environment of the client workstation. Metrics associated with the client integrity checks are compared with security policy and an assigned security access level is set for the user during a VPN session. Traffic policy is then enforced against the VPN session by configuring attributes of the VPN session.
