Contextual Exchange for Better Decisions:

HPE Aruba ClearPass can integrate with third-party solutions like MDM and firewalls to exchange

contextual information about endpoints (e.g., device type, posture, location).

This integration allows ClearPass and the third-party solutions to make better access control and

security decisions.

For example:

An MDM can inform CPPM about device compliance, and CPPM can adjust enforcement policies

dynamically.

Firewalls can receive updated context about users and devices to enforce policies more effectively.

Option Analysis:

Option A: Correct. Exchanging contextual information improves access control decisions.

Option B: Incorrect. CPPM does not provide signature-based threat detection.

Option C: Incorrect. CPPM does not offload policy decisions; it integrates for collaboration.

Option D: Incorrect. CPPM does not replace third-party traffic filtering capabilities.
