Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for automatically determining a location-based network connection policy by a mobile device, where the location-based network connection policy can be determined from information provided by a server. In use, a network connection policy for a network-enabled mobile device of a user is stored by the mobile device. Additionally, an identifier specific to a location of the mobile device is identified. An updated network connection policy is then automatically determined by the mobile device, using the identifier, for example via information sent to the mobile device by a server based on the identifier. Further, the updated network connection policy is implemented by the mobile device for controlling a network connection of the mobile device.
