Login to Chromebook fails with "Device Security not met"
Last updated: April 3, 2026
Applicable to:
- Twingate Component: Client
- Google Chromebook (all models)
- Chrome OS (all versions)
Overview
When adding Biometric configuration as a criteria in Device Security Posture Checks for Chromebooks, these posture checks will fail with a message "Device Security not met".
Cause
This behavior is due to a limitation in the ChromeOS APIs related to biometric reporting. As a result, Twingate is currently unable to reliably validate biometrics configuration on ChromeOS devices.
There is no supported workaround available to use the biometric configuration device posture check for ChromeOS.
