Patent attributes
A memory stores a catalog of applications and a catalog of trusted sources. A processor detects that a first user attempted to install an application, determines that a source of the application is in the catalog of trusted sources, scans the application to determine that the application does not contain a virus, and determines that there is a first license that allows the first user to install the application. The processor also stores the application into a repository and adds the application to the catalog of applications. The processor receives a request from a second user to install the application, determines that the application is in the catalog of applications, and determines that there is a second license that allows the second user to install the application. The processor further retrieves the application from the repository and initiates installation of the application on a device of the second user.
