APM Client side features for iOS and Android

The APM provides a list of supported access and endpoint security features showing Windows, Linux, and MAC. But it isn't clear which of these functions, if any, are available for mobile devices. Specifically iOS and Android.

 

For example. I would like to do a couple simple 'fingerprint' checks on the devices. Is it possible to check to see if a certain certificate is present on the mobile device (something that our MDM placed there)?

 

Any feedback and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

We do have MobileIron and I'm looking at perhaps using the iApp for MobileIron. Unfortuantely the information on DevCentral seems to have stopped after the first article.. there was no subsequent part II.

    you can perform On-demand Cert check in the APM VPE to check a certificate on the mobile. Typically, the iApp will configure the VPE to check the device's UUID and certificate to identify it and check (outband) with the MDM server if the device is compliant to allow access or not. At this time, MDM integration is stil iRules writing. In coming release that should be integrated in the GUI (not sure which MDM solution will be integrated though).
