Patent number: 11849008Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for providing network content filtering to client devices on a per-application basis. A client device is identified. Then the client device is authenticated by the device management service. If the client device is not authenticated, a user interface will facilitate the enrollment process on the client device to authenticate the client device with the management service. Then, an authentication token is received. The management application receives a request from an application to initiate a network connection. Based at least in part on the identity of the application and the client device, the management application routes network traffic associated with the application and the network connection using or without using a managed network tunnel.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: AirWatch, LLCInventor: Adam Rykowski

Patent number: 11483252Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for controlling a distribution of resources on a network. In one example, among others, a system is configured to transmit a request to access a plurality of resources at a distribution service and receive the plurality of resources and a plurality of location rules. The system is also configured to determine an authorized location and an authorized perimeter area based on the plurality of location rules. The authorized location and the authorized perimeter area are determined to have different access rights to the plurality of resources. The system is further configured to determine a location of the computing device and grant access to a resource based on the location of the computing device with respect to the authorization location or the authorized perimeter.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: AirWatch, LLCInventors: John Marshall, Erich Stuntebeck, Gopinath Jayaprakash, John Joseph Manton, Jonathon Blake Brannon

Patent number: 11442941Abstract: Automatic tuning anomaly detection is described. The context metric keys are established during a training phase based on the surrounding context of data received from devices over time. Anomaly and tuning windows are also established for metric ranges of the context metric keys. After the training phase, incoming data is correlated against the keys to identify sets of the data associated with certain context metric keys. For any given context metric key, metric data values in the associated set of data fall either within or outside the metric range of the context metric key. If they fall outside the range for longer than the anomaly window, an alarm is raised. If they fall outside the range for longer than the tuning window, boundaries for the metric range are updated. Additionally, the contextual parameters of the context metric keys are also updated over time, as new data contexts appear.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2019Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: AirWatch, LLCInventor: Ravishankar Chamarajnagar

Patent number: 11425069Abstract: Systems and methods herein provide for improved handling of oversized email attachments. An example system can identify an oversized email attachment before an email is sent, by comparing the size of the attachment to a maximum file size at an email server. The user can then be notified that the attachment is over the allowable file size before sending the email. The system can also un-attach the oversized file, compress it using a suitable compression method, and reattach a compressed file. The compression can be done at the sender's request or automatically.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: AirWatch, LLCInventor: James Murray

Patent number: 11283670Abstract: Systems and methods are included for detecting driving based on user-specific models for driving detection, and restricting access to an application of the user device while a user is driving. A management agent installed on the user device can collect data from sensors in a user device and provide the data to a management server, which can build a user-specific model for driving detection for that user. The management agent can then use that user-specific model for detecting when the user is driving. When the agent determines that the user is driving, it can enforce a driving policy that limits access to applications and delay or modify notifications generated by applications.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2019Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: AirWatch, LLCInventors: Chaoting Xuan, Ravish Chawla, Jianling Wang, Kar Fai Tse

Patent number: 11108886Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2020Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: AIRWATCH, LLCInventors: Chase Bradley, Kevin Jones
