Method for managing device and electronic device supporting the same

An electronic device comprising:

• a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising a first operating system and a second operating system;
• wherein:
• the first operating system includes a device management module and a host management module,
• the second operating system includes a second management module and operates in a virtual environment supported by a hypervisor installed on a kernel of the first operating system,
• the device management module receives a policy for the first or second operating system from an external server, the policy being applied in the first operating system for security,
• the device management module sends the policy to the host management module in communication with the second operating system,
• the host management module applies the policy to the second operating system,
• the second management module converts the policy into a form suitable for a security of the second operating system,
• the host management module controls a backend device driver of the hypervisor,
• the backend device driver notifies a frontend device driver of the second operating system corresponding to the backend device driver that a hardware device of the electronic device is removed or is in an disabled state, and
• the frontend device driver notifies a virtual device driver of the second operating system that the hardware device of the electronic device is removed or is in an disabled state.

A computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for executing a method comprising:

• receiving a policy from an external server by a device management module of a first operating system of an electronic device, wherein the policy is for the first operating system or a second operating system of the electronic device, the policy being applied in the first operation system for security;
• sending, by the device management module, the policy to a host management module of the first operating system in communication with the second operating system;
• and
• applying, by the host management module, the policy to the second operating system,
• wherein the applying includes converting, by a second management module included in the second operating system, the policy into a form suitable for a security of the second operating system,
• wherein applying the policy to the second operating system comprises:
• controlling, by the host management module, a backend device driver of a hypervisor installed on a kernel of the first operating system,
• notifying, by the backend device driver, a frontend device driver corresponding to the backend device driver that a hardware device of the electronic device is removed or is in a disabled state, and
• notifying, by the frontend device driver, a virtual device driver of the second operating system that the hardware device of the electronic device is removed or is in a disabled state.
