Abstract
A system is configured to receive a list of applications installed on a user device; obtain application profiles that identify risk levels associated with the applications; obtain a user profile that identifies a job level, security risk level, or an access level to confidential information associated with the user of the user device; identify a highest risk level authorized for the user device based on whether the job level is greater than a first threshold, the security risk level is greater than a second threshold, or the access level is greater than a third threshold; determine whether any of the risk levels are greater than the highest risk level; and transmit a notification that one of the applications is to be removed from the user device when one of the risk levels, associated with the one of the applications, is greater than the highest risk level.
