Abstract: Systems, methods, and software can be used for securing in-tunnel messages. One example of a method includes establishing a tunneling connection between a server and an endpoint. The method further includes receiving a packet from the server over the tunneling connection. The method yet further includes determining that the packet comprises a tunneling control message based on at least one address in the packet. Based on the determination of a received packet comprising a tunneling control message, the method can ensure the security of in-tunnel messages based on an indication in the tunneling control message.

Abstract: A method for managing software on a device is provided. The method comprises: receiving, from a third party associated with the device, by a software administrator of an organization different from the third party, release information regarding software versions for the device; creating, by the software administrator, a profile that specifies whether or not at least one of the software versions is allowed on the device; and transmitting the profile, by the software administrator to a server computer associated with the third or other parties, to promote enforcement of the profile for the device.

Abstract: Portable electronic devices typically have reduced computing resources, including reduced available bandwidth to receive communications. A method, apparatus and system is provided to manage packet delivery to electronic devices to mitigate some of these problems.
