Abstract: A system and method for securing data in mobile devices includes a computing node and a plurality of mobile devices. A node security program executed in the computing node interfaces with a device security program executed at a mobile device. The computing node is responsible for managing the security based on a node security profile interpreted by a node security program executed in the computing node. A device discovery method and arrangement also detects and locates various information about the mobile devices based on a scan profile.

Abstract: A system and method for securing data in mobile devices (104) includes a computing mode (102) and a plurality of mobile devices (104). A node security program (202) executed in the computing node (102) interfaces with a device security program (204) executed at a mobile device (104). The computing node (102) is responsible for managing the security based on a node security profile (208) interpreted by a node security program (202) executed in the computing node (102). A device discovery method and arrangement (106) also detects and locates various information (120) about the mobile devices (104) based on a scan profile (206).

Abstract: A system and method for enforcing security parameters that collects information from a source relating to a mobile device (104). Based on the collected information, an identity status for the mobile device (104) is determined that uniquely identifies the mobile device (104) and distinguishes it from other mobile devices. The identity status of the mobile device (104) can be determined when the mobile device (104) connects to a computing node source (102) or when the mobile device (104) accesses a resource (124) within the network. A security profile based on the identity status of the mobile device (104) is generated and the security profile is applied to the mobile device (104).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to security systems and methods for mobile network-based data environments. The present invention provides an integration of security, mobile computing, wireless and IT infrastructure management technology, to create a new level of automation and enforcement to enable the transparent application of mobile security across an enterprise, while embracing end user “transparency” and “ease of use” and empowering IT administration.
