Abstract: A method is provided for permitting access to enterprise resources mediated between a first peer device and a second peer device. A shared detection application is installed on both devices. When a second peer device requests access to enterprise resources, the first peer device detects if the devices are within a certain preset distance of each other. The second peer device is permitted to access the enterprise resources while the devices remain within the preset distance of each other. Access is shut-down after a pre-determined time if the first device and the second device are no longer within the preset distance of each other.

Abstract: A method is provided for sharing a file. A first mobile device can generate a link and the link can enable a second mobile device to send a request to a permission server to access a file from a remote server. The permission server can determine a unique identifier of the second mobile device is associated with sufficient file sharing privileges to receive the file from the remote server. Additionally, the permission server can enable the second mobile device to download the file from the remote server, upon determining that the unique identifier is associated with sufficient file sharing privileges. Once the second mobile device with sufficient file sharing privileges downloads the file from the remote server, the first mobile device can receive a confirmation.

Abstract: A method is provided for sharing a file between a sender mobile device and a recipient mobile device. Nearby mobile devices to the sender mobile device are detected through a detection application. A recipient mobile device is selected from among the nearby mobile devices. A message is sent to the recipient mobile device including a link representing a file to be shared with the recipient mobile device. This link is actuatable on the recipient mobile device to request permission from a permission server. Upon permission being granted, the file is permitted to be downloaded to the recipient mobile device from a file server. The sender mobile device receives a confirmation once the recipient mobile device has received the file. P2P networks are preferably used for the detection and initial messaging. A method of accessing a shared file is also provided.
