Security Policies and Device Management

Device management security policies enforce security requirements for all OTA data messages that a mobile device receives, including push messages. The policies use roles that are assigned during certificate mapping to determine whether or not a message is accepted, and if it is accepted, what level of access it is allowed.

You can assign multiple roles to a message in the security policy XML document by combining the decimal values of the roles that you want to assign. For example, to assign both the SECROLE_OPERATOR and SECROLE_OPERATOR_TPS roles, use the decimal value 132 (4+128).

For information about Security Policies that can be configured over the air, see Security Policies.

For information about the common roles for Smartphone and Pocket PC, see Security Roles.
