Abstract
Methods, systems, apparatuses, and/or computer-readable media for providing device management via application modification may be provided. In some embodiments, a request to perform an action may be received. Upon determining that the action is associated with a metered resource, a further determination may be made as to whether the request complies with at least one management policy. In response to determining that the request complies with the at least one management policy, the requested action may be authorized and/or caused to be performed.
Claims21
1-20. (canceled)
A method comprising:
- receiving, in a management server, a request to perform an action from an application executed by a client device, wherein the application is configured to redirect the request to the management server in response to determining that the request is associated with a metered resource and the client device is enrolled as a managed device with the management server;
- determining, by the management server, that the action would consume at least a portion of the metered resource;
- in response to determining that the action would consume the metered resource, determining, by the management server, that the request complies with at least one management policy stored in the management server;
- and
- in response to determining that the request complies with the at least one management policy, authorizing, by the management server, the request to perform the action.
A system comprising:
- a memory storage;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory storage, wherein the processor is configured to:
- obtain a request to perform an action from an application executed by a client device, wherein the application is configured to redirect the request to the management server in response to determining that the request is associated with a metered resource and the client device is enrolled as a managed device with the management server;
- determine that the action would consume at least a portion of the metered resource;
- in response to determining that the action would consume the metered resource, determine that the request complies with at least one management policy stored in the management server;
- and
- in response to determining that the request complies with the at least one management policy, authorize the request to perform the action.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable by a computing device, the program, when executed, configured to cause the computing device to at least:
- obtain a request to perform an action from an application executed by a client device, wherein the application is configured to redirect the request to the management server in response to determining that the request is associated with a metered resource and the client device is enrolled as a managed device with the management server;
- determine that the action would consume at least a portion of the metered resource;
- in response to determining that the action would consume the metered resource, determine that the request complies with at least one management policy stored in the management server;
- and
- in response to determining that the request complies with the at least one management policy, authorize the request to perform the action.
