Abstract

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.
