Device health and network access

Healthy devices on the network, unhealthy ones isolated and fixed

Purple MDM is made by the company behind Purple Access, so it is the only MDM whose view of a device's health can decide whether that device gets on the network. A failed check moves the device to a safe network, the fix is sent, and the device is let back, automatically and in seconds.

What you are up against

Why device health and network access are usually two problems

  • Two consoles, two vendors

    The MDM knows the laptop is unencrypted. The network does not, so the laptop stays on the staff network until someone connects the two by hand.

  • Integration projects stall

    Wiring an MDM to a network access control product is a project with its own budget, and it breaks when either side updates.

  • Quarantine without a way out

    A device isolated by the network stays isolated until a person notices, with no fix sent and no explanation given.

How Purple MDM is set up

How the loop runs on Purple

  • Checks you defineEncryption, OS version, passcode, jailbreak or developer mode, patch status, certificate health and last check-in, each change previewed before it is saved.
  • Verdicts shared the moment they changeEvery compliance verdict is available to Purple Access as soon as Purple MDM records it.
  • A safe network until fixedPurple Access moves the device to a safe network that reaches what it needs to be fixed and nothing else.
  • The fix, then the way backPurple MDM sends the known fix and tells the person what to do. When the check passes, the device is let back onto its normal network.

FAQ

Questions we hear from teams like yours

Ask the Purple MDM team anything else

Do I need Purple Access for this?

Yes, for the network side. Purple MDM manages devices on its own; with Purple Access, device health decides network access with no extra setup for existing Purple customers.

How fast is a device moved?

In seconds. Purple Access reads the verdict as soon as Purple MDM records it, and there is no admin step in the loop.

What can a device reach on the safe network?

What it needs to be fixed: Purple MDM, the update servers and whatever else you allow. You define the safe network in Purple Access.

Can I see why a device was moved?

Yes. Purple MDM explains why the check failed in plain English, with the evidence, and the audit log records the verdict, the move and the fix.
