Benefits of technology

The invention is a system for managing mobile devices in enterprise environments. It uses rules to automatically assign mobile devices to different management partitions based on attributes associated with the devices and users. This eliminates the need for manual assignment and allows for more efficient management of mobile devices. The system can also update policies and configurations when a mobile device is reassigned to a new partition. The technical effects of the invention include improved efficiency and automation of mobile device management.

Problems solved by technology

Many enterprises may manage a large number of mobile devices, and manual assignment of mobile devices to partitions may be cumbersome.

Abstract

Rule-based mobile device management delegation is disclosed. A set of rules are applied to attributes associated with a mobile device to assign the mobile device to one of a plurality of management partitions. The mobile device is managed according to a policy associated with the assigned management partition.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO OTHER APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 859,427 entitled RULE BASED MOBILE DEVICE MANAGEMENT DELEGATION filed Jul. 29, 2013 which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Mobile device management is becoming more and more commonplace in the enterprise environment. In enterprise(s), mobile devices may be managed across a variety of locations, divisions, subsidiaries, groups, etc. In some cases, mobile devices may be managed in an enterprise by organizing the devices into groups (e.g., partitions) of devices managed, for example, by different administrators. Typically, mobile devices are manually assigned (e.g., by an administrator) to partitions. Many enterprises may manage a large number of mobile devices, and manual assignment of mobile devices to partitions may be cumbersome. For example, new mobile devices may be frequently added to an enterprise manageme...
