Oct 17, 2014 Re: posture assessment failed.Hostscan CSD prelogin verification failed After uninstalling as suggested by @sgoundla, I installed an old version of AnyConnect and then made sure I'm updated with the version of AnyConnect that the particular VPN server pushes out.
So, if DAP was failing, then I would be able to see something in the logs. It would show me the attempt, something to show a connection attempt. But there was nothing.
