Securely authorizing access to remote resources
First Claim
1. A method for authorizing access to a cloud-based content repository, comprising:
- receiving a management identifier that indicates a mobile device is being managed by a management service;
transmitting an access request including the management identifier to the content repository;
determining whether the mobile device can access the resource identifier based on validity of the management identifier and whether the mobile device is in compliance with a configuration profile from the management service, wherein the compliance is checked at the time of receiving the access request; and

Abstract
Methods and an apparatus are provided for securely authorizing access to remote resources. For example, a method is provided that includes receiving a request to determine whether a user device communicatively coupled to a resource server is authorized to access at least one resource hosted by the resource server and determining whether the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server based at least in part on whether the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server has been issued a management identifier. The method further includes providing a response indicating that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server in response to a determination that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server. The method yet further includes providing a response indicating that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is not authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server in response to a determination that the user device communicatively coupled to the resource server is not authorized to access the at least one resource hosted by the resource server.
