Abstract

A method for securing data on a mobile device that supports both enterprise and personal applications. According to the method, information flows and data accesses are tracked on the device at run-time to enable access control decisions to be performed based on a policy, such as an enterprise privacy policy that has been distributed to the device from an enterprise server. The policy may be updated by events at the device as well as at the enterprise server.
