SecurityPolicy Configuration Service Provider

4/8/2010

Use the SecurityPolicy Configuration Service Provider to configure security policy settings.

Note

This Configuration Service Provider can be managed over both the OMA Client Provisioning (formerly WAP Client Provisioning) and the OMA DM protocol.

Note

Access to this Configuration Service Provider is determined by Security roles. Because OEMs and Mobile Operators can selectively disallow access, ask them about the availability of this Configuration Service Provider. For more information about roles, see Security Roles and Security Policy Settings.

The following image shows the management object used by OMA DM.
