Abstract

A client-server system and method is provided for secure management of mobile user access to network resources from a wireless mobile device, such as a smart phone. A mobile access control layer resides between a wireless service provider network and host network, allowing for management of mobile access without overriding internal access policies. Access rules determining accessible resources and permitted operations are determined based on a user's group memberships, and optionally on other information received from the system, or from the mobile device, e.g. time or location. Each group is associated with a set of permitted accessible resources and operations, e.g. read or write access to a resource such as a file, list, shared calendar, et al. A list of accessible resources and permitted operations is generated, and the list is made available for subsequent processes, e.g. presented to the user for selection of an accessible resource and permitted operation.
