Android work profile
Prevent data breaches.
Android work profile creates separate work and personal profiles on a single Android device to help protect company data. If a device is lost or an employee leaves the company with their own device, the data in the work profile can be remotely wiped.³
Managed Google Play
Choose what apps employees can access.
With managed Google Play, define app allow and blocklists on fully managed and COPE devices, and within an Android work profile on BYOD to prevent sideloading and downloading unapproved apps that can jeopardise organisational security.
Define privacy on your terms.
Shield company and employee privacy with a personal profile, private space, AI data protections and screenshare privacy safeguards.
Personal profile
Protect employee privacy with a personal profile.
Provide employees with peace of mind knowing that their app use within the personal profile remains private. And if the employee owns the device, the work profile can be deleted at any time without impacting the device or its personal data.³
Secure AI Framework
Ensure data privacy for AI tools
Choose whether AI features like Gemini app and Assistant are active on employee devices via Android Enterprise. Google is committed to the Secure AI Framework (SAIF) to address AI/ML model risk management, security and privacy.
Privacy
Offer employees a private space.
Empower employees with a private space – a separate folder that requires a password or biometrics to unlock – within their personal profile. Android Enterprise extends privacy protections and policies governing the personal profile to the private space.⁴
Screen security
Protect credentials during screen share.
Prevent unintended data leaks during a screen share. Android shows a black screen while entering login credentials, lets the user know when they are sharing a screen and automatically stops screen sharing when the screen locks.
Meet standards
Stay compliant with NIAP requirements.
Meet the latest National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) requirements, including improved audit logging; Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and certain password activities logging; and additional policy logs and admin controls for managed ultra-wideband (UWB).
Fight back against theft.
Lock down missing devices, defend against theft and remotely wipe data if a device can't be recovered.
Lost Mode
Track down lost or stolen devices.
Disable access to lost or stolen company-owned devices and report the device's location by entering a device into Lost Mode.⁵
Android theft protection
Secure stolen devices with theft protection.
Protect sensitive business data from theft with Android theft protection, a suite of security features that includes Theft Detection Lock, Offline Device Lock and Remote Lock.⁶
Remote security
Wipe corporate data from a device.
Remotely wipe corporate data from a device if a device can’t be recovered or an employee using their personal device for work moves on from the organisation.⁷
