Patent ID: 10198560

Abstract:
Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for enforcing licensing policies using an application wrapper are presented. In one or more embodiments, a computing device may monitor, using a first application wrapper of a first application on the computing device, usage of the first application. The first application wrapper of the first application may provide a policy enforcement layer between the first application and an operating system of the computing device, and the policy enforcement layer may control execution of the first application based on one or more mobile device management policies. Subsequently, the computing device may enforce, using the first application wrapper of the first application, one or more licensing policies on the first application at runtime based on the usage of the first application. In some embodiments, the policy enforcement layer may control execution of the first application by intercepting input to the first application, intercepting output from the first application, and intercepting function calls made by the first application.
