1. A method of regulating population of a certificate store in a memory of a device, the method comprising:
- determining that a device administration server is present;
determining that an information technology policy is enabled; and
responsive to the determining that the device administration server is present and that an information technology policy is enabled, disabling user interface interaction, on the device, for importing certificates into a certificate store associated with a portion of memory of the device.

Abstract
Plural modes of operation may be established on a mobile device. Specific modes of operation of the mobile device may be associated with specific spaces in memory. By associating the existing certificate store structure and key store structure with a mode of operation, certificates and keys can be assigned to one space among plural spaces. Furthermore, management (viewing/importation/deletion) of certificates associated with specific modes of operation may be controlled based on the presence or absence of a mobile device administration server and the status (enabled/disabled) of an IT policy.
