The platform enforces granular access policies based on user context, endpoint health, and geolocation. With MFA, organizations can require secondary verification to reduce account compromise.

Security and threat protection
Pulse Secure incorporates deep packet inspection and integrates with security feeds to detect and block harmful actions. Administrators can define protection rules that isolate compromised devices and apply segmentation to limit the attack surface of security incidents. Logging and forensic logs support incident response and compliance reporting.

Deployment and management
Deployment options include physical devices, virtual instances, and cloud-native instances. The control center simplifies tasks like cert management, rule propagation, and system patching. For large enterprises, Pulse Secure provides HA configurations and scale-out capabilities to maintain throughput under heavy load.
