Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed for remote monitoring of mobile computing devices. The method and systems can use cloud-type services to monitor the mobile computing devices. The cloud-type services can include a server that is configured to maintain a virtual link between one or more web-based computing devices and the mobile computing devices. So that, even if the mobile computing devices are not communicating with the server, the server can perform one or more actions to maintain the link between the web-based device and the mobile computing device. The cloud-type services can also include a server that authenticates the mobile computing devices, and that sends a link to the mobile computing device if the mobile computing device is authenticated, the link for use by the mobile computing device to connect to a back-end server that is separate from the server.
