Mobile Suite - Architektur

The Product Suite is composed of an administration component and a runtime environment on the mobile device. IT administration so may configure mobile end devices „remote“. The configuration and security settings are generated as Security Rules. The administration may generate installation packages (CAB, Desktop Installer, SD-Card) via wizards. CORISECIO offers for distribution at the Enterprise Version automated methods. The stand-alone version supports leading solutions for software distribution (ActiveSync, Afaria, OneBridge, etc.).

After transfer to the mobile devices the CORISECIO Software (and 3rd Party Software) is installed and the Security Rules are implemented. On the mobile device the Mobile Security Framework (MSF) serves as basis of the client software. MSF is a service-oriented runtime component for Windows Mobile. It serves as safe environment protected against manipulation, uninstall and termination by the user. Furthermore the MSF provides services for enforcement of Security Rules. In the sense of a service oriented architecture the system wide services may be addressed and used by single functions. All components, e.g. Device Control, Mobile Firewall are realized as MSF Plug-Ins and may, therefore, be added easily.

Embedded systems like Windows Mobile are very hardware dependent. CORISECIO answers to the surge of new devices and versions with a unique concept which enables support of new devices without code change. Device specific information is swapped out in a „Device Knowledge Base“ and is used not until installation on the device. During the installation the installer generates the device specific Cab-Files from this information. Support and licensing of new devices is done via just updating the Knowledge Base. So even new next generation PDA may easily supported by CORISECIO. The DKB is updated by CORISECIO at regular intervals.
