Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method for generating device-specific security policies for applications may include (1) installing, onto a computing device, an application requested by the computing device, (2) while the application is running on the computing device, monitoring interactions between the application and a computing environment in which the computing device operates to identify (A) computing resources within the computing environment required by the application and (B) potential security concerns related to the application within the computing environment, and then (3) generating, based on the monitored interactions, a set of device-specific security policies to enforce for the application while the application runs on the computing device that allow the application to access the required computing resources while mitigating the potential security concerns. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
