  • Patent number: 11868787
    Abstract: Systems and methods are included for managing persistent enrollment of a user device. The persistent enrollment can be controlled by an administrator at an administrator console. The administrator can enable or disable persistent enrollment for the user device at the admin console. A deployment agent can be provided to the user device. During the boot process, the deployment agent can verify the persistent enrollment status of the user device. The deployment agent can retrieve and install a software package for a management agent. The management agent can enroll the user device with an enterprise under a staging user profile. The management agent can install a provisioning package associated with the staging user profile. The management agent can receive user input login credentials. The management agent can change the ownership of the user device with the enterprise. The management agent can configure the user device for the user profile.

  • Publication number: 20230333863
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for provisioning client devices. An enterprise credential can be obtained from a provisioning service. A client device can send an enrollment request to a management service specific to the enterprise associated with the client device. The management service can send an enrollment response to the client device. Then, the client device can receive a provisioning package from the management service. Next, the computing device can then be configured based upon the enrollment response.

  • Patent number: 11726798
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for provisioning client devices. A configuration file previously installed on the computing device can be read. The configuration file can contain a provisioning address. Then, a user account is automatically created using a predefined username and credential stored in the configuration file. Next, an enrollment request can be sent to the provisioning address to enroll the computing device with a provisioning service using the user account. In response, an enrollment response can be received from the provisioning service. The computing device can then be configured based upon the enrollment response.

  • Patent number: 11595383
    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for preauthorizing the joining of a client device to a domain managed by a cloud-based directory service. An authorization token can be generated prior to a client device joining the domain. The authorization token can be subsequently installed on a client device at an OEM facility. When a user first logs into the client device, the client device can send the authorization token to the cloud-based directory service in lieu of administrative credentials to prove that the client device has been previously authorized to join the domain.
