  • Patent number: 11595395
    Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for dynamically determining enrollment requirements and enrolling a user device into a management system. The systems and methods can differ based on the type and version of operating system executing on the user device. With some operating systems, enrollment can be completed through a single application that performs other functionality, such providing single-sign-on access to enterprise resources. With other operating systems, enrollment can be completed by pausing the first application and requiring installation of an agent application to complete enrollment. The determination of how and when to enroll a user device can be done automatically and can be based on an organizational group to which the user belongs.

  • Publication number: 20230016488
    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for signing documents using mobile devices. A request is sent to a certificate authority for a signing certificate. The signing certificate is then received from the certificate authority. The signing certificate is then stored in the memory. Next, a file is received from a client application executed by the processor of the computing device. Then, the file is signed with the signing certificate to create a signed file. The signed file is then returned to the client application.

  • Patent number: 11275858
    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for encrypting documents using mobile devices. A first application receives, from a second application a file and an identifier of a user account. The first application then sends a request for a certificate to a certificate authority and receives a certificate in response. The file is then encrypted using the certificate, and the encrypted file is returned to the second application. The second application can identify the user account as the recipient of a file. Then, the second application can send an encryption request that includes the identifier of the user account and the file to the first application. In response to the request, the second application receives the encrypted file and then provides the encrypted file to the recipient.

  • Patent number: 11153771
    Abstract: Systems herein allow a user to use their personal user device to perform functions in an enterprise environment in exchange for enrolling at a management server. The management server can provide a privacy component that allows the user to view a privacy profile summarizing data collection activities of the management server. The management server can dynamically build the privacy profile based on device profile and privacy settings stored on the management server. The privacy profile can be dynamically updated based on changes to privacy settings, and can also provide links for a user to see actual data that has been collected at the management server.
