You can use Enterprise Gateway to disable access for certain mobile application versions on a predefined set of mobile platforms. By disabling access to these versions, you are ensuring that all users are using the latest versions of the applications and taking advantage of the latest security and functional updates.

To use Enterprise Gateway application protection, you define mobile application filters in Enterprise Gateway rules. These filters check requests for application name, application version, and the type of device from which the request was sent. The mobile application provides this information in the request header. If a mobile application sends a request that matches a filter condition, Enterprise Gateway Server performs the configured action of denying the request or sending an alert about it. For instructions on configuring Enterprise Gateway Server to control mobile application use, see Controlling Use of Mobile Applications.
