Enterprise-wide security system for computer devices

摘要

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).

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
establishing a connection to a mobile device from a computing node; determining whether the computing node is authorized to transfer a device security profile to the mobile device; sending a device security application to the mobile device when the computing node is determined to be not authorized to transfer the device security profile to the mobile device, wherein the device security application is configured to execute at the mobile device to disable the mobile device from usage; and sending the device security profile to the mobile device if the computing node is determined to be authorized to transfer the device security profile to the mobile device, wherein a device security program on the mobile device is configured to interpret the device security profile to set one or more security parameters for the mobile device, wherein a node security profile of the computing node is used to determine whether the computing node is authorized to transfer the device security profile to the mobile device.
