Abstract

A secure system and method for managing and monitoring remote devices preferably includes periodic pulling of configuration information from an accessible platform rather than pushing information from a central site. In one implementation, an electronic mail system is used as a staging platform in combination with a defined polling arrangement to transfer encrypted configuration information in a robust and secure method for updating remote device configurations.
