  • Patent number: 9158895
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing a managed browser are presented. In various embodiments, a computing device may load a managed browser. The managed browser may, for instance, be configured to provide a managed mode in which one or more policies are applied to the managed browser, and an unmanaged mode in which such policies might not be applied and/or in which the browser might not be managed by at least one device manager agent running on the computing device. Based on device state information and/or one or more policies, the managed browser may switch between the managed mode and the unmanaged mode, and the managed browser may provide various functionalities, which may include selectively providing access to enterprise resources, based on such state information and/or the one or more policies.

  • Patent number: 9143530
    Abstract: A system is disclosed that includes components and features for enabling enterprise users to securely access enterprise resources (documents, data, application servers, etc.) using their mobile devices. An enterprise can use some or all components of the system to, for example, securely but flexibly implement a BYOD (bring your own device) policy in which users can run both personal applications and secure enterprise applications on their mobile devices. The system may, for example, implement policies for controlling mobile device accesses to enterprise resources based on device attributes (e.g., what mobile applications are installed), user attributes (e.g., the user's position or department), behavioral attributes, and other criteria.

  • Publication number: 20150199515
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for evaluating application integrity are presented. In one or more embodiments, an application store, which may be provided by one or more computing devices, may analyze one or more aspects of an application. Subsequently, the application store may determine, based on the one or more analyzed aspects of the application, an integrity score for the application. Based on the integrity score, the application store may determine whether to publish the application in the application store. In response to determining to publish the application in the application store, the application store then may publish the application in the application store. Alternatively, in response to determining not to publish the application in the application store, the application store may generate a notification indicating that the application has an insufficient integrity score.

  • Patent number: 9043298
    Abstract: A content management system allows users to capture content from content sources, such as web pages and hardcopy publications, using a client application that runs on user devices such as a personal computer or mobile device. The client application creates bibliography citations for captured content by gathering information from and/or about the content sources. Captured content and corresponding citations can be uploaded to a remote system that provides functionality for users to search for content clippings. The client application can include a document editor that facilitates importation of captured content and bibliography citations into documents being edited. In some embodiments, the system also uses social network connections between users to facilitate sharing of content.

  • Patent number: 8910264
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing mobile device management functionalities are presented. In various embodiments, a mobile device management agent may monitor state information associated with a mobile computing device. The monitored state information may be analyzed on the mobile computing device and/or by one or more policy management servers. In some instances, the one or more policy management servers may provide management information to the mobile computing device, and the management information may include one or more commands (which may, e.g., cause the mobile computing device to enforce one or more policies) and/or one or more policy updates. Subsequently, one or more policies may be enforced on the mobile computing device based on the monitored state information and/or based on the management information.
