The instructions include receiving a link registration request including a third-party link to a third-party server, validating the third-party server as a result of receiving the link registration request, generating a unique code as a result of validating the third-party server, and generating a custom link that includes the unique code.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of selectively installing an application from an application archive file is disclosed. The method includes receiving an indication to install an application on a computing device, the application being available for download as an archive file storing a manifest file and one or more installation files. The method further includes determining that installation of the application is permissible. The determining includes: without downloading the archive file, downloading at least a portion of the manifest file; and determining, based on the at least a portion of the manifest file, that installation of the application on the computing device would comply with a device management policy for the computing device. After determining that installation of the application is permissible, the archive file is downloaded and the application is installed therefrom. Related computer-readable media and computer systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: Described are methods and devices to identify vulnerabilities in a software package that includes two or more build files. The build files include at least an application file and one or more resource files. The method includes scanning the build files to identify strings. Strings that appear in one of the resource files and are not referenced in the application file are labelled orphaned. Strings that appear in the application file and are node defined in any of the resources files are labelled hardcoded. The identity of hardcoded and orphaned strings is output as potential vulnerabilities or data leakage points.
