Patent attributes
Disclosed are various embodiments for controlling distribution of resources on a network. In one embodiment, among others, a processor receives a request from a client device to access resources hosted by a distribution service. In response, the processor determines whether the client device is authorized to access the distribution service. The processor identifies which of the resources hosted by the distribution service are accessible to the client device based on the resource grouping identifiers associated with the client device. The processor determines which distribution rules are associated with the identified resources, the distribution rules including location rules and time rules. The processor then transmits the identified resources and identified distribution rules to the client device, where the resources are configured to be exclusively accessible via a containerized client application on the client device while the client device satisfies the distribution rules associated with the resources.
