integrating WebID would be a nice way to serve machine specific policies in a 
controlled fashion.
http://www.w3.org/wiki/WebID

if you review the WebID list you can find that as a method it can be applied as 
authentication on a wide variety of digital transactions. Looks like a 
transactional form of CFengine is needed.

Client at boot gets key from local DNSSEC to open encrypted partition 
/var/cfengine
Server breaks out all promise potential (graph) aka REST
Client server handshake with WebID informs server of specific promise set 
needed by client
Server serves up appropriate promises to client on encrypted /var/cfengine
if client is lost to the org, remove the WebID and CFengine promises are 
minimally compromised?
but then I use CFengine on laptops too...

for runtime, I think you're going to have to look at SElinux - a promise maybe, 
but that breaks the non-linux systems
