Abstract

In one approach, a first computing device receives a request from a second computing device. The request is for access by the second computing device to a service provided by a third computing device over a network. In response to receiving the request, the first computing device performs a security evaluation of the second computing device. The evaluation determines a risk level. The first computing device generates, based on the evaluation, a token for the second computing device. The token includes data encoding the risk level. The token is sent to the second computing device and/or third computing device. The sent data is used to configure the service provided to the second computing device.
