  • Device management based on wireless beacons
    Patent number: 10484867
    Abstract: A particular method includes detecting, at a managed computing device, a signal from a wireless beacon device via a first wireless connection. The signal is detected while particular functionality is inaccessibly at the managed computing device. The method further includes, in response to detecting the signal, transmitting a first message from the managed computing device to a device management server via a second wireless connection, where the first message identifies the wireless beacon device. The method further includes receiving, at the managed computing device in response to the identification of the wireless beacon device in the first message, a second message that grants the managed computing device access to the particular functionality while the managed computing device is within a transmission range of the wireless beacon device.
