First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- loading, by a computing device, a managed browser, the managed browser being configured to provide at least one managed mode in which one or more policies are applied to the managed browser, the one or more policies being configured to limit at least one function of the managed browser;
receiving, by the computing device, a request to access one or more enterprise resources via the managed browser;
obtaining, by the computing device, enterprise data from the one or more enterprise resources based on the request; and

Abstract
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing a managed browser are presented. In various embodiments, a computing device may load a managed browser. The managed browser may, for instance, be configured to provide a managed mode in which one or more policies are applied to the managed browser, and an unmanaged mode in which such policies might not be applied and/or in which the browser might not be managed by at least one device manager agent running on the computing device. Based on device state information and/or one or more policies, the managed browser may switch between the managed mode and the unmanaged mode, and the managed browser may provide various functionalities, which may include selectively providing access to enterprise resources, based on such state information and/or the one or more policies.
