Abstract
Illustrative aspects described herein relate to data security and automatic deletion of data when specific criteria are met. Sensitive data may be protected when sent over unsecured networks or to unsecured or BYOD devices while preventing data leakage by specifying conditions under which the data is to be automatically deleted. This prevention may involve using a managed application to receive a data message from an application on a sending mobile device, such that the managed application is configure to delete the data message when the specified criteria are met. In one embodiment, the data message may include the criteria which, when met, results in the destruction of the data message, thereby allowing a sender to define the criteria. Once the data message is stored on the second mobile device, the receiving application determines whether the destruction criteria have been met. If so, the receiving application deletes the data message.
