Abstract
Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for securing enterprise data in a mobile computing environment. Aspects include receiving a request to access the enterprise data stored on the mobile computing device in an encrypted format and determining whether a decryption key is stored in a cache memory of the mobile computing device. Based on determining that the decryption key is not stored in a cache memory of the mobile computing device, aspects include transmitting a request to an enterprise network for the decryption key and receiving the decryption key and storing the decryption key in the cache memory. Aspects also include decrypting the enterprise data using the decryption key and deleting the decryption key from the cache memory based on a determination that the decryption key has not been accessed for a period of time greater than a threshold time.
