Techniques for providing dynamic account and device management

1. A method for providing dynamic account and user device management comprising:

transmitting a request for delegate authority to manage a personal electronic user device within a telecommunications network in response to receiving a request from the user device for access to the network;

receiving from the user device delegate authority to manage the user device; and

managing the user device and monitoring data communicated to and from the user device within the network in accordance with a level of authority delegated by the user device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user device is associated with a personal user account comprising at least one of an Internet-based account, a cloud-accessible account, and an enterprise-compatible account.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the delegate authority is granted by a primary accountholder of the personal user account.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying the user device to be managed.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein identifying the user device to be managed comprises receiving a request by a user of the user device for network access.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein identifying the user device to be managed comprises detecting the user device within range of the network.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request for delegate authority comprises at least one of an email, a text message, an instant message, a phone call, a voicemail, a website, a uniform resource locator (URL) link, and a menu window.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

providing network access to the user device.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the network access comprises network access to at least one of a corporate network, enterprise network, residential network, and private network.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the delegate authority comprises a range of authority.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the range of authority comprises partial or total authority, wherein the range of authority is customizable based on at least one of an owner of the user device, an account holder of the user device, policies and standards of an entity requesting delegate authority, and capabilities of an management system of the entity.

12. A system for providing dynamic account and user device management comprising:

one or more processors communicatively coupled to a network, wherein the one or more processors are configured to:

transmit a request for delegate authority to manage a personal electronic user device within a telecommunications network in response to receiving a request from the user device for access to the network;

receive from the user device delegate authority to manage the user device; and

manage the user device and monitoring data communicated to and from the user device within the network in accordance with a level of authority delegated by the user device.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the user device is associated with a personal user account comprising at least one of an Internet-based account, a cloud-accessible account, and an enterprise-compatible account.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the delegate authority is granted by a primary accountholder of the personal user account.

15. The system of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to:

identify the user device to be managed.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein identifying the user device to be managed comprises receiving a request by a user of the user device for network access.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein identifying the user device to be managed comprises detecting the user device within range of the network.

18. The system of claim 12 , wherein the request for delegate authority comprises at least one of an email, a text message, an instant message, a phone call, a voicemail, a website, a uniform resource locator (URL) link, and a menu window.

19. The system of claim 12 , wherein the one or more processors are configured to:

provide network access to the user device.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the network access comprises network access to at least one of a corporate network, enterprise network, residential network, and private network.

21. The system of claim 12 , wherein the delegate authority comprises a range of authority.

22. The system of claim 21 , wherein the range of authority comprises partial or total authority, wherein the range of authority is customizable based on at least one of an owner of the user device, an account holder of the user device, policies and standards of an entity requesting delegate authority, and capabilities of an management system of the entity.

23. An article of manufacture for providing dynamic account and user device management, the article of manufacture comprising:

at least one non-transitory processor readable storage medium; and

instructions stored on the at least one medium;

wherein the instructions are configured to be readable from the at least one medium by at least one processor and thereby cause the at least one processor to operate so as to:

transmit a request for delegate authority to manage a personal electronic user device within a telecommunications network in response to receiving a request from the user device for access to the network;

receive from the user device delegate authority to manage the user device; and

manage the user device and monitoring data communicated to and from the user device within the network in accordance with a level of authority delegated by the user device.
