Abstract: According to at least one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for managing generic data is described. In one embodiment, a request may be received to customize the generic data. The generic data may be downloaded based at least in part on the request. The generic data may be customized for the computing device. The customized data may be installed on the computing device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for managing encrypted files within application packages may include (1) identifying an individual component within an application package that requires encryption, (2) creating an encrypted file by encrypting the individual component, (3) decomposing the encrypted file into (a) a primary encrypted file that contains an initial portion of the encrypted file that matches a critical attribute of the individual component and (b) an auxiliary encrypted file that contains the remaining portion of the encrypted file, and (4) replacing, within the application package, the individual component with the primary encrypted file and the auxiliary encrypted file. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: Exclusions to anti-malware scanning are managed at a user account level. On a computer on which an anti-malware product provides anti-malware scanning, at least one user account to exclude from the anti-malware scanning is specified. Specifying a user account to exclude can comprise adding the name of the user account to the exceptions policy of the anti-malware product. Specified user accounts are excluded from the anti-malware scanning. Excluding a user account from anti-malware scanning comprises excluding all applications that are run by the specified account. Non-specified user accounts and applications run by the non-specified user accounts, are allowed to be scanned. User accounts to exclude from the anti-malware scanning can comprise virtual user accounts. When a virtual user account is excluded from the anti-malware scanning, the system service associated with the virtual user account is excluded.
