  • Patent number: 10592259
    Abstract: Various examples for application management detection are described. In one example, depending upon whether an installation token includes a unique token value, a client device can determine whether an application is managed or unmanaged. Additionally, the client device can determine whether the application is managed or unmanaged based on whether a keychain installation token includes a unique token value, a value of a keychain installation token, and a value of a launched flag for the application. Using the concepts described herein, an unmanaged application can proceed to execute with limited functionality, present a notification that it should be reinstalled by the management service, stop executing, or take other measures.

  • Patent number: 10581987
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for monitoring network usage by client devices and enforcing compliance rules related thereto. A management component of a client application can be provided to identify a first function call made in the source code of the client application to invoke a media player function on the client device associated with a playback of media content received over a carrier network. The first function call can be replaced with a second function call that, when invoked during an execution of the client application, causes a device to identify a size of the media content received by the client device over the carrier network; communicate the size of the media content received by the client device to a remote computing service; and provide the media content for playback on the client device.

  • Publication number: 20200014681
    Abstract: Aspects of providing single sign on (SSO) sessions are described. An access interval key is generated using an access code as a seed to a key derivative function. The access interval key is encrypted using a public key of an SSO-enabled application to generate an encrypted access interval key for a sign on session. The sign on session is established by storing the encrypted access interval key in a memory location of an SSO session map shared by SSO-enabled applications.

  • Patent number: 10469478
    Abstract: To extend a sign on session among applications, an inter-application workflow request can be initiated from a first to a second application. The workflow request can identify one or more memory locations in a shared memory for secure data transfer between the applications. The first application can then monitor the memory locations for the presence of a public key stored in shared memory by the second application in response to the workflow request. Once the public key is present in the shared memory, the first application can retrieve and use it to encrypt an access interval key. The encrypted access interval key can then be stored in the shared memory for retrieval by the second application. The access interval key is associated with a sign on session of the first application, and the second application can retrieve and decrypt it to extend the sign on session to the second application.

  • Patent number: 10447681
    Abstract: To establish a sign on session among single sign on (SSO)-enabled applications, a user can be prompted by an application for an access code. An access interval key can be generated using a key derivative function based on the access code. The access interval key can be considered a session key, and it can be used during a valid SSO session to decrypt a master key stored in a shared memory. In turn, the master key can be used to encrypt and decrypt the contents of the shared memory. To securely distribute the access interval key among the SSO-enabled applications during a current session, individual SSO-enabled applications can each store a public key in the shared memory. The access interval key can then be encrypted, respectively, by the public keys of the SSO-enabled applications and stored in the shared memory to be retrieved securely by the SSO-enabled applications.
