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.

Document signing system for mobile devices

Examples for determining access to restricted features of an application are disclosed. A current working status of a user account and an access policy can be analyzed to determine whether access to the restricted feature should be granted or denied. The functionality can be provided by a library bundled within an application.

Restricting access to application functionality based upon working status

Software development kit ('SDK') applications may be implemented with user data on an enterprise end-user or shared device subsequent to a single check-out process on the device. A user profile and a context ID for a user can be accessed based on user provided credentials. An agent application can set a value of an agent context ID to a server context ID corresponding to the context ID for the user profile. A status of a local context ID ('LCID') of an SDK application can be determined in response to an application launch. Using the LCD, a context ID comparison can be performed on the device with a value of a context ID from one of the SDK application, the server, and the agent application based on the LCID status. The SDK application can be implemented with user specific user data obtained from one of the SDK application and the agent application based on a result of the context ID comparison.

Device application access and user data management

Software development kit ('SDK') applications may be implemented with user data on an enterprise end-user or shared device subsequent to a single check-out process on the device. A user profile and a context ID for a user can be accessed based on user provided credentials. An SDK application can be identified as one application of an application cluster including at least two applications. A status of a local context ID ('LCID') of the SDK application can be determined, and a value for the LCID can be established based on the status and a value of a comparison context ID obtained from a server or an agent application. The LCID and a context ID for a keychain for the application cluster can be compared, and the SDK application can be implemented with user specific user data obtained from the agent application or the keychain based on a result of the comparison.

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.

Aspects of providing single sign on (SSO) sessions are described. An access interval key is generated using an access code as a seed to a key derivative function. The access interval key is encrypted using a public key of an SSO-enabled application to generate an encrypted access interval key for a sign on session. The sign on session is established by storing the encrypted access interval key in a memory location of an SSO session map shared by SSO-enabled applications.

Secure asymmetric key application data sharing

Examples herein describe systems and methods for on-device, application-specific compliance enforcement. An example method can include receiving, at a user device, an application having a compliance engine. The user device can also store a compliance rule that applies to the received application. The compliance rule can specify a condition and a remedial action for the application. The user device can execute the application. The application can determine, using the compliance engine within the application, whether the condition is present. The determination can be made regardless of whether the device has internet or cellular connectivity. Based on determining that the condition is present, the application can perform the remedial action.

On-device, application-specific compliance enforcement

Systems herein can recommend files to users based on meeting information. The system can include a secure email gateway that forwards meeting invitations to an email server and a content server. The system can extract invitee information, meeting timing information, and an attachment from the meeting invitation. During a time period based on the meeting timing information, the content server can cause a managed content application on an invitee's user device to visually identify the attachment as a recommended file. This can allow the user to locate and access relevant files for a meeting, including files that are not attached to the meeting invite, at one location.

Systems for content recommendation based on a meeting invite

Various examples for application management detection are described. In one example, depending upon whether an installation token includes a unique token value, a client device can determine whether an application is managed or unmanaged. Additionally, the client device can determine whether the application is managed or unmanaged based on whether a keychain installation token includes a unique token value, a value of a keychain installation token, and a value of a launched flag for the application. Using the concepts described herein, an unmanaged application can proceed to execute with limited functionality, present a notification that it should be reinstalled by the management service, stop executing, or take other measures.

Managed application detection logic

Disclosed are various embodiments for monitoring network usage by client devices and enforcing compliance rules related thereto. A management component of a client application can be provided to identify a first function call made in the source code of the client application to invoke a media player function on the client device associated with a playback of media content received over a carrier network. The first function call can be replaced with a second function call that, when invoked during an execution of the client application, causes a device to identify a size of the media content received by the client device over the carrier network; communicate the size of the media content received by the client device to a remote computing service; and provide the media content for playback on the client device.

Application network usage management

To extend a sign on session among applications, an inter-application workflow request can be initiated from a first to a second application. The workflow request can identify one or more memory locations in a shared memory for secure data transfer between the applications. The first application can then monitor the memory locations for the presence of a public key stored in shared memory by the second application in response to the workflow request. Once the public key is present in the shared memory, the first application can retrieve and use it to encrypt an access interval key. The encrypted access interval key can then be stored in the shared memory for retrieval by the second application. The access interval key is associated with a sign on session of the first application, and the second application can retrieve and decrypt it to extend the sign on session to the second application.

Inter-application secure data sharing workflow

To establish a sign on session among single sign on (SSO)-enabled applications, a user can be prompted by an application for an access code. An access interval key can be generated using a key derivative function based on the access code. The access interval key can be considered a session key, and it can be used during a valid SSO session to decrypt a master key stored in a shared memory. In turn, the master key can be used to encrypt and decrypt the contents of the shared memory. To securely distribute the access interval key among the SSO-enabled applications during a current session, individual SSO-enabled applications can each store a public key in the shared memory. The access interval key can then be encrypted, respectively, by the public keys of the SSO-enabled applications and stored in the shared memory to be retrieved securely by the SSO-enabled applications.
