# Manage access with posture checks

NetBird enables administrators to manage network access by creating access policies that dictate
which peer groups can interact with others in the network.
Posture checks extend these policies, augmenting their capabilities by allowing administrators to
enforce access restrictions based on specified criteria. By integrating posture checks seamlessly
into policy-based ACLs, NetBird evaluates various attributes to determine the eligibility of peers to

NetBird allows administrators to effectively manage network access through the creation of access policies.
These policies specify which peer groups are allowed to interact with one another, based on port, protocol and network traffic direction.

Posture checks augment access policies by enabling administrators to enforce additional access restrictions based on predefined criteria
like operating system version, geolocation, NetBird client version, and more. By integrating posture checks seamlessly
into policy-based ACLs, NetBird evaluates various machine attributes to determine the eligibility of peers to
connect to the network.

This seamless integration of posture checks into policy-based Access Control Lists (ACLs) ensures that only machines
complying with the defined security posture criteria can access network resources, enhancing overall network security and aligning
with the Zero Trust principles.

## Concepts

There is a number of posture checks that you can choose to enforce access restrictions based on specific criteria.
There is a number of posture checks that you can choose to enforce network access restrictions.
NetBird currently supports the following posture checks: NetBird client version check, operating system version check, and geolocation check.
