Abstract: A client device includes an operating system that lacks an application native to the operating system for remotely effecting a complete data wipe of a storage device of the client device. The client device determines a status of the client device violates a compliance rule associated with operation of the client device. In response to determining that the client device violates the compliance rule, the client device sends the status to a server. The client device initiates execution of an operating system kernel call to remotely effect a complete data wipe of a storage device of the client device.

Abstract: An agent application executing on a client device retrieves an execute command from a command queue managed by a server and retrieves certificates and configuration settings for establishing a virtual private network (VPN) connection. An enrollment application resident on the client device executes in response to the execute command to modify a network setting of a network interface card (NIC) of the client device and establish a VPN connection with a domain controller located within the corporate domain using the certificate and configuration settings. The enrollment application further transmits a request over the VPN connection to the domain controller to join the corporate domain, wherein a corporate account in a directory service is established for the client device; reverts back to the prior network setting of the NIC and terminates the VPN connection and reboots the client device.

Abstract: A server determines a status of a client device, wherein if the client device violates the compliance rule, the server accesses a device record established by the server for the client device. The device record comprises data specifying an operating system executing on the client device. The server determines whether the client device lacks an application native to the operating system of the client device with a programming interface that supports direct communication with the at least one computing device for remotely initiating execution of the native application. The server initiates execution of a computer-readable file on the client device in response to determining that the client device lacks the native application, where the computer-readable file comprises a routine for restricting access to a hard disk storage device of the client device without user interaction.
