PosturePass by Ensure Endpoint is now available in [Microsoft](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000026e/microsoft) Marketplace, letting organizations verify contractor and BYOD device security through their existing Microsoft Entra ID Conditional Access policies. [PRLog](https://www.prlog.org/13176759-posturepass-by-ensure-endpoint-now-available-in-microsoft-marketplace.html) reported the availability on October 14, 2026. Contractors install a lightweight application themselves, with no device-management enrollment, administrator rights or IT ticket required.

## How PosturePass Checks Contractor Devices

PosturePass checks whether a device meets the organization's requirements for disk encryption, antivirus protection, firewall status, operating system patches, remote access software and password policy. When a check fails, the user can see what needs to be corrected and how to address it. Once the device passes, PosturePass writes a compliance signal to Microsoft Entra ID, and the organization's existing Conditional Access policies can use that signal when deciding whether to grant access. Devices are checked continuously, and PosturePass does not manage, lock or take administrative control of the device.

PosturePass is used across thousands of contractor and third-party devices at regulated enterprises in insurance and financial services. Across deployments, roughly one-quarter of devices fail at least one security check during the initial rollout, and most are brought into compliance by their owners without help-desk involvement.

"Enterprises have spent years building strong access policies in Microsoft Entra ID, but those policies cannot evaluate the posture of a device that cannot be enrolled," said Ebba Blitz, co-founder and CEO of Ensure Endpoint Technologies. "PosturePass provides that missing signal without asking anyone to surrender control of a computer the enterprise does not own. Availability in Microsoft Marketplace puts that within reach of every organization already running on Microsoft."

Microsoft released an out-of-band Windows update on September 14, 2026, to fix Remote Desktop Services failures, missing shared folders in Linux VMs and USB audio errors, Cyber Security News reported.
