Abstract
Systems and methods are described that comprise issuing a request to a client device from a platform. The request is an electronic message that includes an electronic link. An acknowledgement is received from the client device, and the acknowledgement is generated upon activation of the electronic link. A secure channel is established between the platform and a client application of the client device upon receipt of the acknowledgement. Establishment of the secure channel comprises the client application logging into a care application of the platform with a device identification that was received from the platform during an enrollment transaction. A session is conducted over the secure channel, and the session comprises the care application remotely controlling the client device via the client application.
