The term denotes both hardware components—gate terminals installed at security checkpoints or network ingress points—and the software protocols that coordinate readiness assessments across an environment.
Etymology and usage: The name is a composite coined to convey the idea of readiness and gateway

Applications and impact: In real-world IT, analogous concepts appear in zero-trust architectures and conditional access. In
