Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates access to encrypted data on a computing device based on a security-posture of the computing device. During operation, the system assesses the security-posture of the computing device upon which the encrypted data is stored. If the assessed security-posture meets specified criteria, the system provides the computing device with a key which enables the computing device to access the encrypted data.
