Techniques for securing a client. When a client, such as a portable computer, undergoes a change in operational state, an operating system agent sends a state message to a server. The state message describes the change in the operational state of the client. The operating system agent is one or more software modules that execute in an operating system of the client. The client receives a policy message from the server. The policy message contains policy data, which a BIOS agent stores in the BIOS of the client. The policy data identifies one or more security policies which the client should follow. |
