Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods for remote an enterprise policy/client configuration installation for client computing devices are provided. In some aspects, a method includes receiving, on a client computing device, via a network, a message including an updated enterprise policy/client configuration associated with an operating system and a signature. The signature identifies a source of the message. The method also includes authenticating the message based on the signature. The method also includes installing the updated an enterprise policy/client configuration. At least a first portion of an enterprise policy/client configuration is configured not to be updatable without receiving the message via the network.
