  The Android framework provides features to support the security, data separation, and
  administration needs of a enterprise environment. As an app developer, you can make your app more
  appealing to corporate customers by gracefully handling enterprise security and feature
  restrictions. You can also modify your app so that technology administrators can remotely
  configure it for use with enterprise resources.

  To help businesses incorporate Android devices and apps into the workplace, Google provides the
  <a href="http://www.google.com/work/android">Android for Work</a> program, which offers a suite
  of APIs and services for device distribution and administration. Through this program companies
  can connect with Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) providers to help integrate Android with
  their businesses.
