  • MOBILE POSTURE-BASED POLICY, REMEDIATION AND ACCESS CONTROL FOR ENTERPRISE RESOURCES
    Publication number: 20150133082
    Abstract: A mobile device management system that monitors the security state of one or more mobile devices and sets indicators related to such security state. Enterprise network applications, such as an email application, can access the security state information when making access control decisions with respect to a given mobile device.

  • Methods, apparatuses and systems facilitating client handoffs in wireless network systems
    Patent number: 7917146
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems directed to facilitating roaming and client handoffs in wireless networks. In one implementation, the present invention is directed to a coordination mechanism facilitating handoffs of wireless clients in a wireless network infrastructure. In one implementation, the coordination mechanism minimizes the use of group- or multi-casting to provide a scalable wireless network roaming infrastructure.
    Type: Grant

  • Key distribution and caching mechanism to facilitate client handoffs in wireless network systems
    Patent number: 7672459
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems directed to a key distribution and caching mechanism that facilitates roaming in wireless networks. In one implementation, the present invention reduces the latency associated with handoffs by reducing the time required to set up encryption or other secure access mechanisms between access points and clients in the wireless network infrastructure. In one implementation, the present invention operates proactively to distribute authentication credential information to selected components of the wireless network infrastructure before a client roams to another access point.
