An endpoint integrity system controls access to resources of a protected network for endpoint devices attempting to access the protected network. The system may include a number of evaluation modules that communicate with an endpoint device. The evaluation modules generate policy results for the endpoint device, in which each of the policy results assume one of three or more states, called a multi-state policy result. The multi-state policy results are combined to produce a combined Boolean policy result. 127-. (canceled)28. A method comprising: the plurality of policy results including a first policy result and a second policy result,', 'each policy result, of the plurality of policy results, being associated with a respective plurality of states, and', a pass state,', 'a fail state, and', 'another state that differs from the pass state and the fail state;, 'a first plurality of states, associated with the first policy result, including], 'identifying, by a processor, a plurality of policy results relating to a security state of a network device,'} a first state of the first plurality of states, and', 'a second state of a second plurality of states associated with the second policy result;, 'the information identifying, 'determining, by the processor, information associated with a criterion,'}evaluating, by the processor and based on the criterion, the network device to generate an evaluation result; andoutputting, by the processor, the evaluation result to the network device.29. The method of claim 28 , where the other state claim 28 , included in the first plurality of states claim 28 , corresponds to at least one of:a state associated with the isolating the network device within a network, ora state related to denying a request from the network device.30. The method of claim 28 , where the evaluation result relates to confirming at least one of:an integrity status of the network device,an identity of a user of the network device,an identity of the network device ...
