Abstract:
Disclosed are various approaches for enforcing policies for unmanaged applications. A user supplied script can be evaluated to determine whether an application is installed on a computing device. In response to a determination that the application is installed on the computing device, a request can be sent to a management service for at least one policy applicable to the application. The policy can be evaluated to determine whether the application complies with the policy.
