There is an article in "Information Security" titled "No Compliance, No
Access" that discusses Microsoft's and Cisco's products. Page 21 if
you have it laying around, if not I'm sure its available online.

Microsoft has a solution where remote users are scanned and verified
clean before they are allowed to create a remote session, either using
VPN or dialup. Their solution is based on Windows Server 2003. I think
Cisco may have a similar solution, at least they should. There may be
others as well.

This is a common problem with no single solution. No matter what you do,
the mobile user is going to be a high risk entity. Education of the
user of their ability to cause harm to their own data and the company
network is a great start. They need to be aware that their actions can
cause catastrophic results.
After education, the following are the most important:
-Install Personal Firewall and AV on all laptops and make sure you
educate the users on the function of the software.
-Lock down the configuration so it cant be disabled by the user
-Enable aggressive live updates (daily) and scans (daily)
-Patching Automation - Before your user leaves the network, their
laptops should be patched with the more recent OS updates.
-Its best of your laptop users can connect to a "sandbox" network on
return to the office or if you can separate all physical connection that
belong to mobile users on a sandbox VLAN. This can be difficult to
manage depending on your current network design.
