Abstract: A method modifies an application program to create an augmented application program by including at least one call and a software library in the application program. The at least one call is to a method that forms part of the library. The method further includes, upon receiving a request from an augmented application program resident on the device, registering and authenticating the augmented application program and sending a policy file to the device that is configured to control use of only the augmented application program. Another method receives at a device an application program augmented to include the at least one call and software library. The method further includes launching the application program and sending a registration and authentication request to a server of an enterprise, and receiving from the server a policy file configured for controlling use by the device of only the registered and authenticated augmented application program.

Abstract: Managing user applications is provided. A visual model of user interface display screens of a user application is generated by mapping components displayed within the user interface display screens to screen position coordinates and by mapping the screen position coordinates corresponding to the components to original source code of the user application. A runtime policy for each component in a selected set of components within the user interface display screens of the user application is generated based on user interaction with the generated visual model of the user interface display screens. The generated runtime policy for each component in the selected set of components is sent to a client device via a network. Activity of each component in the selected set of components in the client device is tracked using data that is tracked and logged on the client device based the generated runtime policy for each selected component.
