Network Access Protection (NAP)

The only truly new XP SP3 feature is Network Access Protection (NAP). NAP, which works with Windows Server 2008, is a security checkup protocol. It blocks any PC from joining a Server-based active directory (AD) unless it meets the server’s security update policy standard. For example, if the server requires a PC to have the latest patches installed, it won’t let the PC login until it has gotten those update.
