Abstract
Techniques described herein may provide for affiliation and disaffiliation of devices, such as office communication devices, associated with a user. The affiliation/disaffiliation may be performed using a mobile device (e.g., a smart phone). In one implementation, a method may include receiving a request to affiliate a user with one or more office devices; and receiving context data, from a mobile device, relating to a current context of the mobile device. The method may further include determining, based on the context data, to authorize the affiliation of the user with the one or more office devices; and provisioning, based on the determination to authorize the affiliation, the one or more office devices to customize the one or more office devices for the user.
