What happens if an assessment policy checks a non-manageable endpoint?

When an assessment policy checks a non-manageable endpoint, the compliance status cannot be determined. Non-manageable endpoints are those devices that do not fall under the direct control of the management system, meaning that the necessary checks and balances cannot be implemented to assess their compliance with the defined policies. Since the system cannot gather the required data or apply enforcement actions on these endpoints, it leads to an inability to ascertain whether they meet compliance standards, thereby resulting in an undetermined compliance status.

This understanding highlights the limitations of managing devices that lack the ability to be configured or monitored by the oversight tools in place, emphasizing the importance of having manageable devices within a network to maintain effective compliance checks.
