SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CREATING AND ASSIGNING A POLICY FOR A MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE BASED ON PERSONAL DATA

摘要

A system and method to create and assign a policy for a mobile communications device are disclosed. The policy may be created based on personal data associated with the mobile communications device. For example, known sources of personal data on the mobile communications device may be identified and a policy may be created based on the known personal data. The policy may then be used to identify additional personal data associated with the mobile communications device. Thus, the personal data associated with the mobile communications device may be monitored. If an application attempts to access the monitored personal data, the access will be detected.
