  • Patent number: 9065771
    Abstract: Some aspects of what is described here relate to managing application execution and data access on a mobile device. A request to access data is received from an application associated with a first perimeter on a device. The data is associated with a second, different perimeter on the device and has a data type. It is determined, based on the data type, that a management policy associated with the first perimeter permits the application to access the data independent of a second, different management policy assigned to the second perimeter. Based on the determining, the application is provided access to the data.

  • Publication number: 20130212392
    Abstract: There is provided a method and apparatus for resetting a password for a device or managing the device, the device having an encryption perimeter. A device shares a public/private key pair with a server, the public key being on the device and the private key being on the server. An intermediate value is encrypted on the mobile device using the public key. If the password is lost or the device needs to be managed, the server can request the encrypted intermediate value, decrypt it, and send the decrypted value to the mobile device which may then resume operations. A new password may be provided by the server or the user may set a new password once the encryption key is recreated from the decrypted intermediate value.
