Intercept X and VPN Access

Question

Hi, 
 is it possible to configure a client having Intercept X installed to allow connecting to the sophos gateway via VPN only when Intercept X is running on that client? Can this be configured somewhere? This is a form of NAC (Network Access Control). 
 Or is the only way here to use Security Heartbeat for this, so a vpn connection will be allowed, but the client would not be able to communicate, when HB on client is not as required or not reported at all? 
 
 Thanks. 
 Sebastian

Hi Sebastian, 
 For Intercept X restriction to VPN, this would be a feature request. You may reach out to Sophos Support/Partner to input this into your Account. 
 As for the Security Heartbeat, This would be possible, and for the restriction, you may decide on the minimum HB permission requirements. 
 Kindly check the following KB for reference:

Hi seroal Additionally With IPSec Remote access you may define the below settings while configuring IPSec Remote access : Reference - https://doc.sophos.com/nsg/sophos-firewall/19.5/help/en-us/webhelp/onlinehelp/AdministratorHelp/RemoteAccessVPN/IPsecSSL/IPsec/RAVPNIPsecSettings/index.html#advanced-settings
