ACTIVATION OF MOBILE DEVICES IN ENTERPRISE MOBILE MANAGEMENT

摘要

The present disclosure is drawn to systems and methods for activating a mobile device in an enterprise mobile management context. The mobile device is configured to generate a first device security certificate which comprises a device key and an identifier of the mobile device. The device key corresponds to a shared secret known to the mobile device and to an authentication server. The mobile device sends the first device security certificate to the authentication server. The authentication server validates the mobile device by comparing the device key to a server key and by locating the identifier in a list of known identifiers. When the mobile device is validated, the authentication server sends a first server security certificate to the mobile device. The first device and server security certificates may then be used to establish a secure connection, over which a second set of device and server certificates may be enrolled.
