Here is info from our Good rep on how their Good Dynamics product works. Please be aware that this isn’t an endorsement of Good Dynamics, as we have not implemented it. The applications can be distributed either through a web site, or of course through the
Apple App Store – but the Apple store is not required.
.5 Enterprise Application Distribution Configuration and VPP
Applications can be defined in the Good Mobile Control Applications Catalog by using the Custom Software section of the Settings tab. Custom DoD built applications can be added and distributed via policies. You can also add third-party applications
by their installer package or by URL. Adding packages by URL allows easy distribution to users via direct links to applications hosted on external web sites or the Apple App Store.
Click on Custom Software in the Settings tab. Click Add, choose the iOS handheld platform from the dropdown and enter the application path and file name or choose the radio button to specify
a URL. Populate the Values and click Finish.

The Good Mobile Control Console also provides support for Apple’s Volume Purchase Program. For details on downloading and deploying Apple VPP applications please refer to the Good Admin Guide - http://http://media.www1.good.com/documents/GoodAdminGuide_exchange.pdf.

Good Technology’s recent introduction of the Good Dynamics platform brings the necessary tools, infrastructure, and APIs to developers, enabling them to meet the highest standards
of security in applications across devices and operating systems to meet DoD Standards. Byproviding proven security functionality—such as encryption (encrypted data at rest and encrypted transport), app-level controls, and web-based monitoring—the Good Dynamics
platform dramatically speeds up the delivery of 3rd Party application development projects to include Government levels of protection and compliance.
The Good Dynamics platform offers unique security. By providing protection beyond device-level, developers can rapidly incorporate technology that “containerizes” data at the app
level—wrapping a layer of protection around approved, enterprise-deployed apps, which separates Government data from the rest of the native device and especially consumer applications. By establishing a secure application environment, data loss is reduced,
if not eliminated. When Good for Enterprise and Good Dynamics applications reside on the same device they leverage Single Sign On based on Good For Enterprise policies set in this Hardening Guide. This is includes Device Level Threat Detection, Hardware Version,
OS Version and Connectivity Verification as defined by policy.
Trusted/Secure applications can be defined under the Third-Party Applications section of the Settings tab. Those applications can then be white-listed or black-listed from importing/exporting
into/from the Good For Enterprise applications and those defined Third-Party applications in the File Handling section of the Policies.
For example, this allows attachments to be edited in a secure application and transferred back to the Good for Enterprise File Repository for redistribution as an attachment or stored
for later retrieval.
1. On the Settings tab click on Third-Party Applications on
the left column under Settings. On the right under Third-Party Applications click on Add.

2. Choose the iOS handheld platform from
the dropdown and enter the Application I.D.,Application Name, and Description.
(The Application I.D. is the internal identifier that the device OS knows the application by. For iOS devices, the Application I.D. can be found by using IPCU or it can be seen from a specific device in the Installed Applications App ID column of Handheld
Info once the device has been queried when provisioned.) Click Save. The below are an example of GD Wrapped ISV Applications. For a complete list go tohttp://www1.good.com/partners/integration/good-dynamics-solutions.
