Abstract

In an example, a method of creating a secured workspace in a mobile device includes installing an application management agent on the mobile device, wherein the application management agent is configured to communicate with a remote server to obtain a security policy. The method further includes installing a wrapped enterprise application to the mobile device. The wrapped enterprise application includes code injected therein that, when executed by the mobile device, causes the mobile device to intercept at least a portion of instructions being executed by the wrapped enterprise application and to interpose alternative instructions that comply with the security policy. The method further includes communicating among the wrapped enterprise application, the application management agent, and other wrapped enterprise applications through pasteboard and uniform resource locator (URL) handlers provided by an operating system of the mobile device.
